Yes agreed, this is planned so they get to SCOTUS, now they will show a much different story to SCOTUS. You guys will win many have faith over here in Canada. We believe trump is still playing media and the left, he is way smarter 10D chess baby lol
They can’t show a different story to the Supreme Court. In appeals, you can only present the facts from the original case. You cannot introduce new evidence.
The original evidence is enough though, impartial court would never reject the case claiming no enough evidence.
Ok, but that has nothing to do with I was saying. The guy said they would present a different story and I said they can’t.
Where can you introduce new evidence? To SCOTUS? Because so far none of the courts have ruled in our favor with the existing evidence. We need to be able to introduce even more to make it a guarantee for the courts to side with us. Idk how it works, though
If you introduce new evidence that fundamentally changes your argument, you would need to file a new case and have the lower courts make a decision with this new evidence taken into account.
Remember: you’re appealing that the lower courts did not make the right decision given the facts available at the time. You can’t go to the Supreme Court with new evidence because they will say: “the lower courts did not have this evidence to consider, so maybe they would have ruled differently with this new info”. Then they’ll send the case back down.
so then how does Trump plan to have SCOTUS rule differently? Does the legal team really have the confidence that every lower court made the same mistake and SCOTUS will change that?
