NEW: Devin Nunes’ lawyer is facing the prospect of sanctions after two recent warnings from judges, a rare occurrence from the bench, according to an ethics lawyer: fresnobee.com/news/local/art…
Nunes and his lawyer, Steven Biss, were issued a rare warning in their lawsuit against Fusion GPS, when a judge dismissed it earlier this year and told them to follow federal rules if they file an amended complaint. fresnobee.com/news/local/art…
Nunes and Biss did file another complaint, and last week Fusion GPS's lawyers called on the judge to issue sanctions against them. That's the most recent of four requests in 2020 to sanction Biss. Not all of those cases are Nunes related. fresnobee.com/news/local/art…
In one case related to but not involving Michael Flynn, a federal judge said this: "Should Biss file further inappropriate pleadings or pursue frivolous post-judgment litigation against any of these defendants, sanctions might well be justified.” fresnobee.com/news/local/art…
