Hollister v. Soetoro: Hemenway Reprimanded, Order to Show Cause Discharged

By Phil

Attorney John D. Hemenway, having filed as an interpleader for Hollister v. Soetoro, has been reprimanded for his help in bringing what Judge James Robertson termed a “legally frivolous lawsuit:”

While it is the judge’s prerogative to rule as he has done, I do find his sarcastic tone rather disconcerting, especially with respect to those who legitimately question the eligibility of the President. It seems to me that he could have properly explained his reasoning for the reprimand without going into a soliloquy of his personal feelings on an issue of which he specifically disclaims any interpretation.

According to the current listing of eligibility-based lawsuits, my readers will notice that Mr. Berg has already appealed this case.
