Speaker 1 (00:00):
Yeah, these federal judges. I think it's abusive powered Jeremy Rosenthal.
I want if he agrees with me or not, let's
find out. He's the Texas attorney and legal expert. Bringing
in these federal judges is becoming a rapidly a top priority.
The question is, Jeremy, how do you do it?
Speaker 2 (00:17):
Good morning? How are you today?
Speaker 3 (00:19):
This is a really it's a fascinating topic, and I
think it's one that's important to talk about how these
courts work, what we do if you don't agree with
the judges ruling, and and sort of how that's handled
in the big picture. And I think to take a
step back, I think you have to understand why it
(00:40):
is we're seeing as many judicial actions as we're seeing.
I think the easiest way for me to understand this
is that right now Donald Trump has a very very
very slim majority in the House, he's got a slim
majority in the Senate. That the Republicans had to go
(01:01):
across the aisle to prevent a government shutdown, which is
just another way of saying, you're just not going to
see a lot of legislation here. What you do see
is you see from because you're not going to see
a lot of legislation. Donald Trump, if he wants to
advance his agenda, has to do it through a lot
of these executive orders. And to put it in Houston
(01:21):
rockets Houston Cougar's parlance, when you drive to the hoop
a lot, there's going to be a lot of contact.
And these are necessarily going to draw a lot of
judicial executive orders just tend to draw a lot of lawsuits.
And that's why you're seeing as many rulings as you are.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
Yeah, I do like a good sports analogy, So thank
you for that. But Dom but that, but that aside,
is there a is there a limit to what a
federal judge can do? In other words, are they allowed
to here are cases brought to them even though the
complainant has absolutely nothing to do with the jurisdiction that
(02:01):
that judge services, Because because we have a lot of
judge shopping going on, that's.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
A great question.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
So the way that it works, obviously, as you just
hit on it, a federal judge just he's not like
in go back to the sports analogy. By the way,
I'm so I'm a red Raider and we couldn't finish
off Florida and the Houston Cougar's had the chance to
and you guys, man that.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
That breaks my heart and for the Big twelve.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
But getting you know, focusing on this, uh what what
what we have to remember is that a judge isn't
a guy in the stands who just comes out of
the stands to block the president's shot. There has to
be a lawsuit filed and the judge is ruling.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
On that lawsuit that's filed.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
And to your point, you have to have what's called
standing to bring a lawsuit, which is to say that
if Donald Trump tomorrow, well let's just take the Gulf
of America, right, Jeremy and McKinney, Texas can't go and
file a lawsuits stopping that unless I have some type
(03:04):
of interest in that, which I don't know how anybody would, right,
and maybe you're a map maker, I don't know, but
but you have to have some type of vested interest
or standing to bring that case. And you have to
have you have to to be able to bring it
into whatever court that that that you're bringing it in. Right, So,
if I wanted to sue the Trump administration for the
(03:27):
Gulf of America.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
Jeremy from McKinney, Texas.
Speaker 3 (03:31):
Can't go to the Northern District of California and file
a suit there it the judge wouldn't hear it. So
you do have to have some initial qualifications A to
challenge a lawsuit and b to challenge it.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Where it where where where that judge is.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
Seems to me they're playing fast and loose with that, though, Jeremy,
aren't they when you get right down to.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
It, They're being lawyers.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
It is my it is my god given right. Just
so you know that to forum shop, right, that's what
any lawyer does.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
That that's what the good ones do. In North Texas.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
I'm in Collin County, where the suburbs were, a conservative
county north of Dallas County. If you have a car accident,
you you definitely look and see which side of the
line that's on right, because you're going to want to
shop for the for the most favorable venue. What's key
here is that it is the review process because and
(04:24):
I think the way to think of this is not
in terms of okay, of course there of course, somebody
who wants to shut down an order is going to
go to a more favorable Judge. What nobody can avoid
is the US Supreme Court. And that's what really matters here.
And to the point that you were talking about before
impeachment or no impeachment, the real remedy here is to
(04:47):
it is to appeal the rulings up. And you saw
a lot of that with Judge Bosburg, where Judge Bosburg
would make an initial ruling and the Trump administration didn't
like it, and they would and it would go up
and down and up and down only and generally these
things play in the middle.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
Well, the only problem I see with that is just
the amount of time that it takes. So if they
could expedite that, then that you're right, that would be
the perfect remedy. I'll have to leave it at that, though, sir,
we're out of time. Appreciate your time. Counselor Jeremy Rosenthal,
