Introducing the Party of Law and Order!
The Supreme Extreme Court of the United States just granted the DoJ’s request to vacate an appeals court ruling against Steve Bannon, after they told the high court that it wants to dismiss the matter that was brought against Trump’s ally during the Biden administration.
The high court relief doesn’t officially dismiss the case, but it clears a path for that conclusion, as the DOJ has a pending motion in the trial court seeking dismissal. The next step will play out in the lower courts.
Bannon was convicted in 2022 for not complying with the House Jan. 6 select committee. He served a four-month sentence after the justices refused in the summer of 2024 to let him stay free while he appealed. He continued his appeal after serving his time, filing a petition with the justices in October after his appeals court loss.
