"“The filing is deficient for the following reason(s): the PDF attached to the docket entry for the pleading is not correct; the wrong event type was used to file the pleading; Court’s leave has not been granted; the order granting permission to file the pleading was not attached,” the bolded docket entry reads.

The court went on to explain how to properly file the request the next time around. Most of the advice — and the mistakes the advice is meant to address — concerns basic filing errors. But the court also advised Trump’s team they needed to refile with the government’s consent or leave of court — and dinged the lawyers for not having leave of court, which means the court’s consent, in the first place."

    Oh he can afford better, no doubt about that. His legal counsel is constantly deficient for one simple reason. The entire pool of lawyers available to him are idiots. That’s because the ones who are not idiots have noticed that he never pays his lawyers after the fact so they want payment up front. Since he refuses to do that, he only has the idiots to chose from.
