DOJ seeks 6 months in prison, $200K fine for Steven Bannon over contempt conviction [View all] LetMyPeopleVote Oct 2022 OP

I hope the judge agrees. Lonestarblue Oct 2022 #1

Does he go to jail? Go directly to jail? Do not pass go Walleye Oct 2022 #2

Not for some time FBaggins Oct 2022 #4

Would this make it all the way to SC? bluestarone Oct 2022 #8

It could FBaggins Oct 2022 #9

There is no appeal process. The conviction is "appeal bulletproof." He'll be sentenced Oct 21. ancianita Oct 2022 #13

There's an appeal process. He will probably lose, but he can appeal. rsdsharp Oct 2022 #15

According to this process, has he filed appeal within 14 days? ancianita Oct 2022 #21

Sentence will be imposed later this week. rsdsharp Oct 2022 #25

Right. ancianita Oct 2022 #27

What gave you that idea? FBaggins Oct 2022 #16

Please another couple of questions here. bluestarone Oct 2022 #17

He wouldn't go to jail/prison during the appeal process FBaggins Oct 2022 #18

True, his attorney said 'bulletproof appeal.' Do you have a link that he's appealed? ancianita Oct 2022 #20

He doesn't have to appeal by Friday FBaggins Oct 2022 #22

Okay, fine. I've read that he's told the court that he'll appeal, so let him. After a jury decision ancianita Oct 2022 #23

Appeals don't have anything to do with the jury FBaggins Oct 2022 #24

Fine. I stand corrected. I'll still err on the side of the appeal being dismissed. ancianita Oct 2022 #26

The only way an appeal as a matter-of-right would be "dismissed" would be on procedural grounds, rsdsharp Oct 2022 #28

Yes. I get procedural grounds re appeals. ancianita Oct 2022 #29

I didn't say it was untimely. I said a procedural issue is the only way it would be dismissed. rsdsharp Oct 2022 #31

Will he be able to stay out of jail for the duration of his appeals, even after sentencing? ancianita Oct 2022 #30

Yes, he will stay out of jail pending appeal (assuming he's sentenced to jail). rsdsharp Oct 2022 #32

Thanks. ancianita Oct 2022 #33

Maybe TDFG will issue him a fake pardon with his fake executive privilege as fake president bucolic_frolic Oct 2022 #3

Lock this asshole up LetMyPeopleVote Oct 2022 #5

+! speak easy Oct 2022 #34

This is small change compared to conspiracy and sedition which he engages in daily. n/t Evolve Dammit Oct 2022 #6

I truly believe that when he gets sentenced that this will be a turning point on how people vote turbinetree Oct 2022 #7

This makes me smile LetMyPeopleVote Oct 2022 #10

Yep 6 months. THEN bluestarone Oct 2022 #11

Really? Six months in jail and $200,000 would deter me. BUT that is a ruler across the knuckles..... usaf-vet Oct 2022 #12

Based on what newly jailed perps say EndlessWire Oct 2022 #19

$200,000? Question: Will he write a personal check and laugh... Grins Oct 2022 #14
