Question raised in hope this day
We need to continue the quest for truth14 total reviews

The answer would be NO. A citizen cannot sue the high court because laws are in place preventing it from happening. Here is a notation.
The principle of absolute immunity shields government officials from being sued while they serve in an official capacity, and it extends to judicial officers including court judges.

Thank you for reading my question and the answer was already known. It is just how much this country is being abused when the people are suppost to be the true leaders and not the bureaucrats.

I agree with you. We have a lot of things we need working out. That?s for sure.

Our government during these last years and the constitution has been thrown out the window. I think suing the Supreme Court is a great idea. What a wonderfully written poem. I wish I had a six for you. Best of luck with your writing!
Have a great day, and God bless.

I am sure that this is one of the first politically based poems that I have read in a very long time and one that I agree with whole heartedly. Very well composed.

A very well-written poem and an excellent question that should be asked to a good lawyer that will definitely have the right answer and probably the knowledge to help one get through the right channels. We can also continue praying for the truth to be revealed.

I completely agree with you, I wonder why they refuse to get involved in what is clearly a violation of constitutional rules. For me it is about who will be in the white house...I fear for this country with Biden at the helm.

Thanks for your comments. Even worse with the Hyena taking his place after they get rid of Biden.

Comment from HarryT
I'm going to be honest. This is not a poem under any circumstance in my opinion. The question should be raised as an essay. With a little research you would find that the Supreme Court has "federal sovereign immunity." In the United States, the federal government may not be sued unless it has waived its immunity or consented to suit. I respect your right to pose the question but the format is not conducive to such an inquiry and although there is such a thing as artistic license the lack of research does not serve the writer's purpose. But, on the other hand, it is always good to vent and examine one's thoughts.

Thanks for your comments. Thanks for the honesty. I said this is not strictly a poem in my comments but I needed to vent and ask this question. I am grateful for the information but than ask how is it that there ahs been times of suing President Trump or as now done with Vice-President Pence are they not part of the Federal Government?
-
n a 5-4 decision, the Supreme Court ruled that the President is entitled to absolute immunity from legal liability for civil damages based on his official acts. The Court, however, emphasized that the President is not immune from criminal charges stemming from his official or unofficial acts while he is in office.
In Pence's case he is being sued to perform an act not for something he has done in office.
That's about all I know.
-
Well it is the court's official act is to protect the Constitution and the refusal to adjudicate the questions of the past election is a criminal offence.
-
It is not the role of the Supreme court to rule on the legitimacy of elections, this duty is in the purview of state courts as is the elective process.
-
True but it is the role of the Supreme Court to adjudicate constitutional questions. As I stated in the work the legitimacy of the election is irrelevant and whether there would be any change of outcome is not the concern for the Court. What is of concern for the Court is the Constitutional Questions and the violation to the Constitution. Because the Court has refused to view the evidence as to the attacks to the Constitution it has become "Derelict of Duty".
-
The court examined the case and decided it was without merit. In my opinion they fulfilled their duty. Not bringing a case after examination of merits does not constitute, in my thinking a dereliction of duty. But I guess we will have to agree to disagree. Thanks for an interesting discussion.

I most certainly agree with what you have posted but if one did sue the supreme court how much would it cost to hire a lawyer to do this and could one find a lawyer to actually begin a lawsuit of this nature. I think it would be a stalemate. That is where the problem lies and it is a vicious cycle. Where does one go from there?

Comment from robyn corum
Dan,
Hey, friend! It's good to see you - I worry about you when you disappear! It's good to read something from your talented hands - and especially such a thoughtful piece as this.
A couple of notes, if I may:
1.) Question raise(d) in hope this day
2.) The need to have this (adjudicated) is urgent
I went and did a Google search on this and it says anyone can sue anyone at any time. BUT it also said that the suit would probably be dismissed for cause before anyone on the Court even know the suit was happening. Things are crazy 'round here. ha
Thanks - so good to see you again!

I think it's probably time America moves on, and stops accusing, it never has done anything good for a nation, it just creates ill feeling and division, which inevitably will tear a nation apart, I don't even live there and can see that's what's happening. Beautifully written, welcome back, blessings Roy

The trouble with that is that we are talking about destroying the very fabric of our Country and that is not acceptable. The tearing apart is exactly why we need to have the Courts do their duty and not refrain from the obligation. The Nation is already destroyed if the Court does not act. The division has come from those who spent the past four years not accepting Trump as our President and trying to remove him from office during his entire term of office. Even with that constant attempts to remove him, the Trump Presidency achieved more than Presidency in American history.
-
Well I think that no olive branch has been offered by either side to the other,, there appears to be little proof but lots of accusation, it?s actually worse than children fighting. Empires always destroy themselves from the inside out. And in the midst of the forest there?s little light and lots of shadows.
-
Actually there is a very significant amount of proof and evidence but the courts are afraid to allow the evidence presented. They do not want to be seen as making the election when that is not the problem, The problem is that the Constitution has been ignored and that means the loss of the Nation. Thanks for listening to my view and hope that things will be saved for our Nation.

Here?s hoping,
