Excerpt of Judge Walton's filing concerning Libby's motion for release pending appeal.

In his conclusion, Walton writes:


"The Court concludes that none of the defendant's other claims are "close [questions] or [ones] that very well could have been decided the other way."


I look forward to Fitzgerald filing today to the Appeal Court. I am very sure that his filing and arguments will be the same as Walton. The little soldier doesn't have a prayer to win a release pending appeal.

Here is Walton's filing:

I understood SPB the motion that was denied. It was the emergency motion for Libby not to go to jail before his appeal was completed. Now I'm a little tired of Teddy B. Ruxpin aka Wells using the same weak appeal about Fitz not appointed correctly. It's was looked at, reviewed and found to be legally correct. Move on to something else. I would ask the court for new lawyers. If an old lady like me can figure this out Libby's being robbed. Now I know he's a lawyer but this is wasting the courts time. Yes Fitz has to submit his filing to complete the process. The answer is go to jail if Bush doesn't give Libby that pardon.

I know that you understand the latest on Libby since you have legal background. But, there are people who are reading this blog who may be confused about the situation of Libby. So, I wanted to make it very clear to the readers and the news junkie that Scooter's appeal to the Appeals Court for an emergency release from prison to fight his appeal has nothing to doing with his fighting the appeal on his conviction.

Libby's appeal for his conviction will be a long and expensive process. Libby's appeal go into 2008. But, the bottom line to this is that Scooter must stay in prison and not be on the streets while fighting his appeal. Once Libby is jailed, the dark cloud and main focus will be on the two people who haven't been indicted and convicted for their crimes yet in the leak investigation: #2 McRove and #1 Mr. 9%!
