Whoah, this opinion in Trump v. Boockvar:

"Plaintiffs ask this Court to disenfranchise
almost seven million voters."
"This Court has been presented with ... speculative accusation ... unsupported by evidence. In the United States of America, this cannot justify the disenfranchisement of a single voter, let alone all the voters of its
sixth most populated state."
"Plaintiffs have made multiple
attempts at amending the pleadings, and have had attorneys both appear and
withdraw in a matter of seventy-two hours."
"There have been at least two perceived
discovery disputes, one oral argument, and a rude and ill-conceived voicemail
which distracted the Court’s attention from the significant issues at hand."
"Plaintiffs’ only remaining claim alleges a violation of equal protection. This
claim, like Frankenstein’s Monster, has been haphazardly stitched together from
two distinct theories in an attempt to avoid controlling precedent."
"That Plaintiffs are trying to mix-and-match claims to bypass contrary
precedent is not lost on the Court."
"The Court was required to embark on an extensive project of examining almost every case cited to by Plaintiffs to piece
together the theory of standing as to this Plaintiff – the Trump Campaign."
"Even if Plaintiffs had standing, they fail to state an equal-protection claim."
"All [that] Plaintiffs have
alleged is that Secretary Boockvar allowed counties to choose whether or not they
wished to use the notice-and-cure procedure. No county was forced to adopt
notice-and-cure; each county made a choice to do so, or not."
"Moreover, even if they could state a valid claim, the Court could not grant Plaintiffs the relief they seek."
