On August 30, U.S. District Court Victoria Roberts refused to stay her own opinion in Graveline v Johnson, 2:18cv-12354. On August 27, the judge had put independent candidate Chris Graveline on the ballot for Attorney General as an independent, provided he has at least 5,000 valid signatures on his petition. He submitted over 14,000, so it is likely he does have at least 5,000 valid.
The state wanted a stay because it said it will have difficulty checking the petition. The state has also filed a notice to the Sixth Circuit, to reverse the U.S. District Court. In the Sixth Circuit, the case is number 18-1992.
The appeal machinations is what drives regimes to tyranny.
IE – file notice of appeal >>> NO / ZERO MORE ACTION IN LOWER COURT.
HIGHER COURT CAN and should impose SANCTIONS (ESP. $$$) on junk machination stuff by junk lawyers after notice of appeal filed.
Any bribes/threats about sigs on ANY type of petition — candidate or issue ???
— akin to the bribes/threats in the boss tyrant regimes before the official ballots in 1888-1890
