Additionally, Eugene’s post about TROs registered in a lawsuit filed by Willmelhale against the Trump administration’s executive order Very I recommend you take a look Complaint Submitted by Paul Clement Erin Murphy’s company. The first six or so pages are the eloquent defenses of independent legal companies that you are likely to read.
13. Order violates power separation twice. The role of the President is to enforce the law, not to create new laws before the court or to award the act of the law, nor do the law or constitutional provisions give the power to unilaterally sanction Wilmer Hale in this way. That’s not surprising. Legislative efforts to limit lawyers’ access to government buildings, services and materials are patently unconstitutional, merely to represent disadvantaged clients and causes. The court relies on its behalf to “present all reasonable and grounded arguments” on behalf of its lawyers, thus enforcement divergent efforts to prevent private lawyers from representing certain clients, moving forward with specific arguments, or “threatening serious obstacles to judicial functioning.” Legal serve. Corp.v. Velazquez, 531 US 533, 545-46 (2001).
14. Plus, the order violates the proper process seriously. It imposes serious consequences without notice or opportunity to listen. It uses a vague and vast language that does not properly inform Will Melhale (or its clients) of the conduct that caused these extraordinary sanctions. And it unfairly selects Will Melhale based on the perceived connections to the preferred individual and cause.
Put it down well.
