[Omar Jimenez @OmarJimenez]

As we were talking about Kilmar Abrego Garcia and the recent federal appeals decision in the case, our attorney on the panel started cracking her knuckles. I figured she had something to say...

@OmarJimenez Thank you @OmarJimenez for letting me participate! I can't believe I only saw this now. Many of us are trying to strike a balance between legal work, spreading the word through media, and occasionally grocery shopping. I may have erred on the side of grocery shopping this time.

It was a pleasure as always to be on @cnn with the amazing @thelauracoates and guest @rslegrand to discuss the legal stakes in Georgia and whether #FaniWillis will remain as prosecutor on the remaining 88 counts. Or not. #JudgeMcafee

[Rebecca LeGrand @rslegrand]

@IAmSophiaNelson @CNN @thelauracoates Loved talking with you, hope we can do it again sometime!

My blunt January 26 take on @ejeancarroll $83 million jury defamation verdict against former POTUS Trump with @CNN Host @thelauracoates & fellow guest @rslegrand. #DunceCap https://t.co/MbjCXO4b2t

@_marcanthony4 @MarshallCohen @thelauracoates I enjoyed being on a panel with crazy smart lawyers like @thelauracoates and @_marcanthony4

And I'm glad I'm not facing either of you in court, because much skill in that room! Thanks for letting me sit in. Also https://t.co/YmzvyofdMU

@WimminsRea She's a Rosy Maple Moth (really), and she just got back from aerobics class (maybe).

Life is crazy amazing, see, e.g., moths.

Though they really should stop eating all of my sweaters.

@WimminsRea Moths ate all my sweaters.

I like moths too, but they were very very hungry this year, sniff.

(not my finger, but that's a local moth in the Northeast)

[Rebecca LeGrand @rslegrand]

@LindaHirshman1 XOXO forever.

Signed,
Single in Cheverly

[Rebecca LeGrand @rslegrand]

@WimminsRea I miss you too, even though we've never actually met! But screw this platform, come over our office and drinks are on me. Also travel cost if we can come up with a plausible CLE. 😉

A word to police chiefs: Yes it is.

@SaraKropf Oof. I bet they don't know our paralegal Kenny is singing on this yet to be released track. #SmallLaw4SmallBands

@SaraKropf Ask me about Chicago in the '80s someday. Not good.

@OrinKerr @jujueyeball I like the good faith arguments in the brief! We used nearly the same ones in a reply we just filed on a different 4A issue, so we'll see if the court agrees. You always fear courts will bend over backwards to avoid suppression, but at least it's a good issue on appeal, sigh.

[Rebecca LeGrand @rslegrand]

@OrinKerr @jujueyeball I agree with your reasoning and like the arguments a lot.

But we'd lose on the good faith exception on my facts at least.

Overbroad understanding of good faith cripples development of 4A law IMHO. For any novel argument you gotta worry client won't get relief even if you win.

The Fifth Circuit said my clients—all Black eligible potential jurors—had no standing to challenge a DA’s 30 year practice of striking Black jurors. But anti-abortion doctors who have literally zero relevant interest have standing to challenge mifepristone.
