Do you practice law in federal court? Not trying to be an asshole, I’m really asking.
I’ve worked misdemeanors and felonies in a trial court and in both instances, remote appearances were allowed except when the party is testifying. Frankly it sounds fucking ridiculous that they would be forced to show up for anything but trial considering how unlikely it is that Trump does time before sentencing.

The case could’ve been held and be done with. There was assignment across the various cases. This judge delayed on purpose. Delayed while not freeing up the planned time this case would be held. Thereby trying to mess up the planning of other cases.
