I'll note this is, again, one of those nondiscretionary decisions. The plain language of the law made this absolutely obligatory. As much as I've bitched about his decisions in general, Bennett has called all these kinds of things correctly.I'm pleased the Magistrate cockslapped him immediately. It demonstrates he's paying close attention to the docket and makes me feel better about these long silences when it comes to Mr Hardin's filings.
Ironically, the worst act of tard guarding in this case was the District Judge stepping in, after Hardin had been asked by the magistrate for an accounting of fees, incurring even more expenses, and then just arbitrarily completely ignored the accounting to pull a number straight out of his ass.
He's like the anti-Tena Campbell, who intervened to shut down this farce years ago. He instead intervened to be a moron and fuck it up.
