Justice Department Appeals ACORN Ruling
U.S. District Judge Nina Gershon’s absurd ruling on ACORN funding
Some weeks ago the U.S. Department of Justice filed an appeal of U.S. District Judge Nina Gershon’s (absurd) ruling on ACORN funding.
Gershon issued a permanent injunction against the U.S. government forbidding it from defunding ACORN. She held that the cutoff of funding to ACORN constituted an unconstitutional bill of attainder.
I had searched without success for weeks online to find the appeal documents.
I asked the DOJ to provide the documents today and the department promptly complied.
Here is the Notice of Appeal and here is the Motion for Stay Pending Appeal.
