And sar aa murray. i asked a constitutional professor what the significance of this is and he said reading a judge s comments from afar is that it looks like the judge is on the fence here. meadows case has always been slightly different from the other co-defendants. what are you hearing? meadows is in a different position. he was white house chief of staff, that is a federal position. and what the judge is essentially saying is if i find that one of these acts outlined in the indictment, one of the things that he allegedly did as part of the conspiracy had to do with his role as a federal official, is that enough for him to succeed and to be able to move this to federal court. or does that not meet the threshold. he s asking meadows as well as fulton county district attorney s office to reply in these briefs by thursday evening. from a timing perspective, we ve been trying to figure out when will the judge sort this out. that tells us it will be at least friday is the soonest where
