If this order is violated, does somebody get arrested?

Almost certainly not, for a couple of reasons:

  1. This is a civil case. Can’t directly arrest someone within a civil case.

  2. To charge criminal contempt, the judge has to refer the case to the prosecutor. But oh my! Look who the prosecutor is (Pam Bondi). Do you expect those dipshits to actually prosecute contempt on this?

There’s a pathway to civil contempt in this case, to remedy ongoing non compliance. Civil contempt can send people to jail until they choose to comply, but there are no criminal charges. No charges = no prosecutor.

However, I don’t expect open or flagrant violations, just some busted deadlines getting the guys out of state. I also expect an immediate appeal and at least 50-50 odds of an emergency stay is this order from the appeals court.

I demand arrests. I demand Trump be arrested, and Pam Bondi too

Write your congressmen about it; it’s the least you can do.

Even if it won’t fix things, it tells them what you think
