JUDGE SULLIVAN ORDERED TO DISMISS FLYNN CASE
In a 2-1 opinion, the United States Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit has granted Michael Flynn’s petition for a writ of mandamus ordering Judge Emmet Sullivan to dismiss the case against General Flynn. I commented on the oral argument before the court here on June 12. I have embedded the panel opinion below along with the dissent.
Judge Rao’s opinion for the panel responds in detail to Judge Wilkins’s dissent. I think Judge Rao seeks to dissuade the D.C. Circuit from finding a way to rehear the case en banc under Rule 35 of the Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure.
The Flynn case constitutes a sidebar to the biggest political scandal in American history by far. One can only hope that this is, as it should be, the end of the road for this utterly disgraceful case.

Judge delays all proceedings in Flynn case after appeals court sides with DOJ.
A federal judge halted all proceedings in the case against retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn.
U.S. District Judge Emmet Sullivan, who was appointed by former President Bill Clinton, issued a minute order Wednesday evening after an appeals court panel sided with the Justice Department in its effort to force the judge to allow it to drop its case against President Trump's first national security adviser.
"In light of the Opinion and Order issued by the Court of Appeals on Mr. Flynn's petition for writ of mandamus, the deadlines and hearing date set forth in the Minute Order of May 19, 2020 are HEREBY STAYED," the order by Sullivan said.
After the 2-1 ruling by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia, Sullivan could request a rehearing “en banc” before the full appeals court.
It is also possible that one of the other judges on the appeals court could request such a hearing “sua sponte” even if Sullivan does not request it himself.
