This District Attorney is a lawless rogue. Despite the fact that the law was already declared unconstitutional by a federal court in his own state, this guy just pissed on that decision like it was nothing. If I were Judge Greer I would have issued an OSC as to why the District Attorney shouldn't be the subject of sanctions for ignoring the prior ruling and why he shouldn't pay, out of his own pocket, the costs of filing for the TRO. And I would have made the OSC returnable by 12:00 p.m. on Tuesday so the bastard would have to spend time over the holiday weekend drafting the response.

These people - these self-identified law and order patriots and "constitutional conservatives" - have just completely lost their sense of what is required with respect to the legal process. They have complete contempt for precedent they don't like in both the legal and colloquial sense. And as a lawyer I find that really offensive. It's corrosive.
