昨天,华盛顿联邦区法官ROBART暂时中止川普禁令。暂时中止令不只是适用于华盛顿州,而是全美国范围适用(“onanationwidebasis ”)。读者可以参见文末的法庭命令。 一个地区的联邦法官可以在全美范围内中止美国总统的行政命令,美国的三权分立制度得到了检验与考验。不能不令人赞叹美国创始人系统设计的冗余容错与稳定性(redundantfaulttoleranceandstability)。 有人可能会问,麻省的那位 联邦法官援引排华法案拒绝中止禁令 ,这个华盛顿法官却宣布中止禁令,两者如何统一呢?从逻辑上,一个联邦法官拒绝中止与另一个联邦法官同意中止并不矛盾,因为拒绝中止并非强制执行,只要有一个法院批准中止即可中止。进一步诉讼才能解决相关争议。估计星期一法院开门,川普的律师会冲进旧金山第九巡回法院递交文件。最终应该会打上美国最高法院。对美国法律熟悉的人士可能会问:TRO命令能上诉吗?参见473U.S.1301,但是参见: 467F.3d999。 川普对此表示: 100多年前,1861年5月,美军逮捕一名马里兰州的立法委员,后者的律师紧急向联邦法院提请habeascorpus。联邦法院命令林肯手下战将GeorgeCadwalader 交出该立委。 Cadwalader向法院递交了一封信件,说根据林肯的命令他不能交人。 秀才不怕兵,法官大怒,判处 Cadwalader将军藐视法院 。 林肯律师出身,悍然宣布中止habeascorpus,理由是宪法规定国会可以暂时中止 habeascorpus,但当时国会休会,只好由他总统来了 。美国最高法院首席法官“著名的”RogerTaney判决林肯无权中止, ExparteMerryman , 林肯不予理睬。枪杆子里出政权,信乎!但毕竟那是内战时期,数十万联邦政府军处于作战状态。两个月之后,联邦军与南部军进行了第一次大规模战斗-- FirstBattleofBullRun,双方投入兵力数万人。无论是否美国人,不知美国内战就不懂美国,如同中国人不知汉史就不懂中国一样,是我读了美国内战史后的深刻感受。对相关历史不清楚而又对美国感兴趣的,可以查阅相关资料。 对川普案有兴趣的 可以看看下面的听证录像 。法庭上双方心平气和的讲道理,这是文明社会 文明人 的表现。 法制国家的管理者必须懂法(或者幕僚必须懂法),否则将会到处碰壁。 川普作为强大美军的最高统帅,一句话足以让地球上大部分国家战战兢兢。川普禁令以来,美国群众游戏抗议,无济于事。但几个手无缚鸡之力的专业人士跑到联邦法院引经据典地说一通话,这道禁令就被(暂时)废止。这说明什么呢?知识就是力量啊。当年排华法案的制订,美国国会也进行了相当长时间辩论,但那时华人基本属于文盲苦力、麻木不仁,更不会去说话进行逻辑反对。等到排华法成为法律,也就只能继续听天由命了。 State Of Washington Vs Donald J Trump Et Al United States Courts-1.MP4 法官的命令: 19717309322.pdf 起诉书: 1lori020217.pdf 动议: 19717300831.pdf U.S. District Court United States District Court for the Western District of Washington (Seattle) CIVIL DOCKET FOR CASE #: 2:17-cv-00141-JLR State of Washington v.
