special trial setting

Read a random definition: et habuit

A quick definition of special trial setting:

A special trial setting is when a court sets a specific date and time for a trial or hearing. This can happen because a party requested it or because the court wants to give priority to certain cases, like older cases or cases involving someone over the age of 70. It's like scheduling an important appointment on your calendar.

A more thorough explanation:

A special trial setting is a date and time established by a court for a trial or hearing that is given priority over other cases on the court's calendar. This can be requested by a party or ordered by the court itself. It is usually reserved for older cases or cases that are given priority by law.

For example, some jurisdictions may give a special trial setting for cases involving a party over the age of 70. This means that the trial for that case will be scheduled before other cases on the court's calendar.

Another example of a special trial setting is when a case involves a matter of public importance, such as a high-profile criminal case or a case that could set a legal precedent. In these cases, the court may give a special trial setting to ensure that the case is heard as soon as possible.

Overall, a special trial setting is a way for the court to prioritize certain cases over others based on their importance or urgency.

I mean, idk how it's possible to end birth right citizenship without amending the constitution because to me the 14th amendment is pretty clear about it.
ross ulbricht tried to hire a hitman to kill 5 people

@KnowledgeableRitzyWasp: That might have been an FBI agent. It was most likely him and he was most likely doing it to retrieve stolen funds that corrupt FBI agents stole, but yeah moral gray area but me personally, cool with hitmen. It's not like it is uncommon to hire hitmen. I don't think the action itself is necessarily wrong but the intent behind it can be.

Like, Boeing whistblowers being killed by hitmen = wrong but a guy hiring hitmen to retrieve stolen funds = good to me.

@Dkk: Yeah, for sure. My guess is it'll go to SCOTUS and it'll be 8-1 or 7-2, saying that EO was unconstitutional.
