The government argued that the string of reversals of Judge Lamberth's orders
(discussed previously here) established a "pattern" of Judge Lamberth's
"failure to follow [the D.C. Circuit’s] guidance.” The government also argued that the July 12, 2005 opinion was,
“in its extended vitriol . . . unlike any other judicial opinion that we have ever seen,” that the tone and content of the opinion were such that Judge Lamberth had compromised the appearance of his own neutrality, and that the opinion thereby undermined the “appearance of justice” (the government's formulation of one of the circuit-law bases for reassigning a case).
