Last week I posted on GAW to clarify the situation with regard to Dennis Montgomery and his connection to the 2020 election. You can find that post here: https://greatawakening.win/p/15JnYrQlIR/dennis-montgomery-mike-lindell-a/

If you are unfamiliar with this matter, it is critical you read my initial post. This case is for all the marbles.

I thought I'd update things a bit. That's what this post is.

From a legal point of view here's what's going on:

On August 20, 2022, Mr. Lindell filed a motion in federal court in Nevada to intervene in a case between Dennis Montgomery and eTreppid Technologies. That case began in 2006, and is a private matter concerning a financial dispute.

In connection with that case, Mr. Montgomery was placed under a "gag order" (to use a colloquialism) that prevented him from disclosing any information concerning his relationship with the government (CIA), or any information concerning the government's use of his software (i.e., Hammer). Mr. Montgomery has been under that gag order since 2006.

Mr. Lindell's motion to intervene asks the court to lift the gag order. The motion explicitly seeks permission to use "Data" collected on election night by Mr. Montgomery - see my previous post for an explanation. It also seeks permission to use the testimony of Mr. Montgomery.

Mr. Lindell has gotten brilliant legal advice. (I am an attorney, btw, so this is an educated opinion.). The basis of Mr. Lindell's motion is that he needs the aforementioned Data and testimony in order to defend himself in his lawsuit with Dominion, wherein Dominion is asserting that Mr. Lindell defamed them. It appears that his legal team had Mr. Lindell goad Dominion into suing him so that he could intervene in the 2006 case and seek rescission of the gag order. Moreover, his attorneys had him buy the Data, so that there's no reasonable way to say he lacks standing in the 2006 case, because he owns the data that he wants to be able to use. Checkmate.

The United States filed a brief opposing the motion on October 6, 2022, i.e., last week Thursday. (They urge that Mr. Lindell lacks standing, among other weak arguments.)

The order lifting the gag order is not yet listed on the docket.

We all heard the gag order was lifted last week Friday, i.e., October 7, 2022. I suspect that is when oral argument occurred, and although it is rare, the judge may have ruled from the bench. Or - more likely - made it very clear how he was going to rule.

To editorialize, I don't see how Mr. Lindell loses this one. I think the government knows they're going to lose. They dropped a footnote at the end of their brief asking for 60 days in the event that the court decides in favor of Mr. Lindell.

I'm a little busy today, but I can hop in from time to time to answer questions. Over and out.

EDIT: I JUST CHECKED THE COURT'S DOCKET, AND IT APPEARS THAT THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RULING ON MR. LINDELL'S MOTION TO INTERVENE. I CAN'T GET AT CERTAIN DOCUMENTS RIGHT NOW, SO I AM READING TEA LEAVES TO A CERTAIN EXTENT. THAT SAID, I DON'T THINK THERE HAS BEEN A RULING YET. ...I'LL KEEP YOU POSTED.
