Race To The Bottom

36 minutes late, 773 words: “May it please the Court: Don’t make Evan Corcoran testify. Yeah, that’s all we got.”

DOJ: “Permission to go long, your Honor.” 138 word motion filed 28 minutes before deadline. 6455 word response filed 24 minutes before deadline. 

I’m thinking the 773 word brief is stuffed inside a footnote somewhere in the response.

I also don’t think the Court anticipates granting oral arguments.

Here's the court order that sounded the starting gun: As to what's going on: A stay is basically an injunction, so the moving parties have to show they’ll prevail on appeal. Without the stay, Corcoran testifies, so without the stay the appeal is moot.
