A federal appeals court Thursday has agreed to hear a request from Michael Flynn's legal team to remove the district judge overseeing his case, and has also ordered the judge to explain his controversial and unorthodox conduct in handling it. 

Judge Emmett Sullivan has been given a June 1 deadline to respond. The government has also been invited to "respond in its discretion" during that window. 

Flynn's legal team had filed a request on Tuesday asking the appeals court to remove Judge Emmett Sullivan from the case, claiming the judge was biased against the defendant. Following the Justice Department's request earlier this month to dismiss the case against Flynn, Sullivan had appointed retired federal Judge John Gleeson to file an amicus curiae brief arguing in favor of not dropping the case against the general.

    • Same for RBG (off the SC) for being so prejudiced against Trump...

    • Agree! Sullivan must be thrown off the bench permanently and disbarred!!

  • That interesting.  If Judge Sullivan does not satisfactory explains his action to Appeals Court I sure that they will overrule him. 

    • DON'T BET THE FARM ON THAT......I WOULDN'T TRUST ANY JUDGE AS FAR AS I COULD THROW THEM....PERIOD.....
