What Appellate Court?
On what grounds?
CNN —
The federal appeals court in Washington, DC, declined to rehear arguments over whether former President Donald Trump can be prohibited from talking about witnesses and court staff while he awaits trial in the special counsel’s January 6 criminal case.Trump has unsuccessfully tried to challenge the gag order placed on him by Judge Tanya Chutkan late last year through appeals.
The 11 judges from the DC Circuit Court of Appeals on Tuesday declined to touch the case after a three-judge panel previously upheld the gag order against Trump. There were no statements or dissents made by any of the judges
He can appeal Merchan's decision to the New York Appellate court and if they give him the wrong answer he can appeal to the Supreme Court.
Hold your breath on the federal cases, he can pardon himself next month.
