Burden's on him to produce the evidence warranting it. No trial court will grant a mistrial on just a mere possibility of juror contamination, and no appellate court is going to find reversible error on the same basis.

The downside of all of this (for us in the peanut gallery, anyway) is that any appeal will likely not be given oral arguments.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

The issue of whether a law is unlawful is a question of law for higher courts to decide. The jury decides questions of fact, ie what happened and does the law apply. It's part of the division of power in trial settings.

Edit: I know that was a lot of "law"s. I can explain better when I'm at home.

Yeah, jury nullification is for, like, possession charges.

Not so much murder.

Not a lot of debate in legal circles over murder.
Yeah, nullification targets the applicable law, not the particular charge.

Yet another thing this dude doesn't understand because ain't no one who's going to buy that on murder/assault.

My only question is can he object when he is muted in the other room?

No, I'm not trying to give him a free pass. Dude is an idiot that deserves to be in jail. It's more a curiosity. And yes, I'm also aware that he wouldn't know how to object because he always says the same thing when he objects.
Could play a game of telephone with the bailiff as middleman. You are allowed to raise objections in closing arguments.

Have you read any of Malazan books before? Because that's a heavy ask and I would HIGHLY suggest having some lighter stuff to read in between. It makes Wheel of Time look and feel about as deep as The Hobbit.
I've gotten 3 deep previously but then law school destroyed my desire to read, and I've just now gotten back into it via running through part of ASoIaF to get the mojo flowing.

This really wasn't much of a surprise. The Court has ruled against taxpayer standing on a federal level for as long as taxpayer standing has existed, and it would open up such a huge can of worms that not even this Court is going to be willing to try it.
Seriously. Nobody with the slightest amount of legal acumen wants this to be a thing. Otherwise it's going to open doors to even more endless lawsuits against the federal government.

Congress, not the President, holds Constitutional power to authorize spending federal funds. They're arguing that the President doesn't have constitutional authority to forgive the debt.

Where these people were when Trump issued an executive order to build a wall on the Mexican border remains a mystery.
Or when PPP loans were forgiven...

Or when farmers have regularly had their butts bailed out...

Edit: And let's be real, these people don't care about the constitutional questions. They're just angry that people other than them are getting a benefit.
