For any of my CrimPro students watching at home, these are basically the bookends to our semester starting next week. We'll be talking about Rule 41(g) (and Weeks v. United States) the first day of class. And we'll spend a lot of time with Wong Sun at the start of the last week.
southpaw@nycsouthpaw

To explain the Wong Sun thing a bit further: That's a case about keeping evidence out of a trial because the search was illegal, and if Trump gets charged he'll have the opportunity to argue that. What he's purportedly seeking now is return of seized evidence under rule 41(g).

This is striking. If you're a defense lawyer anticipating a search of your client's house and trying to stop it, you make the strongest case you can in a letter like this. Trump's lawyers never claim he actually declassified the documents. That is very telling.

9/ It is also worth nothing that Trump’s attorney does *not* assert or argue that Trump previously declassified documents or had a “standing order” doing so.

DOJ has asked to unseal the warrant and "Attachments A & B." Best I can tell from examples of recent federal search warrants, these attachments will describe the "property to be searched" and the "particular items to be seized" but will NOT include the affidavit of probable cause

The Garland presser was a very good job of standing up to Trump and his cohort of Republicans whose lies and bad faith are now threatening the lives of FBI agents

@SababaUSA @fordm I haven't plotted these all out to show growth, but in 2015 it's at about a midpoint (9,256 DNSWs). Query how much of this growth reflects growth in total SWs vs DNSWs overtaking regular SWs. (Could be both.)

@SababaUSA @fordm Gosh, look at the jump in raw number of DNSWs from 2007 to 2021: from 419 up to 19,666. (I think if we take your 0.2% figure and apply it to 2006 totals (87 DNSWs) we get something like 43,500 total warrants?) uscourts.gov/statistics-rep…

I thought I had rock-bottom expectations for U.S. criminal-justice statistics, but trying to answer a simple question like "how many federal search warrants are approved each year" still managed to lower them.

@fordm Wish I could help you. This is barely useful, but I think you can safely say a LOT more than 20,000, seeing as there were 19,666 *delayed notice* federal search warrants issued last fiscal year, and seeing as "the vast majority" of warrants are *not* delayed notice. links below

@5thCircAppeals @JonahPerlin that was usually a "file ready" draft, as in pretty close to what I'd submit for journals. I think I had a roughly similar expanding trust approach for workshopping pretenure - as in, it depended some on context/the group at the workshop and how 'evaluative' the workshop felt.

Serious question from a novice academic. Lots of folks say "share your work early and often." I love the sentiment but I am petrified of sharing anything that is not "file ready" (maybe a relic of when I was a litigator). What does/should an "early feedback" draft look like?

@Justin_Riemer @oneunderscore__ I don't know, but I wonder whether the analysis would be different if the opposing party was required to produce them in discovery but failed to do so. Can you be punished if opposing counsel unintentionally complies with a discovery order?

Wow. Sandy Hook parents' lawyer is revealing that Alex Jones' lawyers sent him the contents of Jones' phone BY MISTAKE. "12 days ago, your attorneys messed up and sent me a digital copy of every text" Jones has sent for years. "You know what perjury is?" the lawyer asks.

@profcikara @RogertheGS TFW you go and read the original article and then think to yourself, "gosh, I really hope it's the Chandler Wobble."
