Fannie Mae-No Politics (FNMA)

[whipstick]

Thanks Obit - so it was my (probably incorrect) understanding that the Mandamus ruling prevented all types of privilege other than Executive - which obviously doesn't align with your comment here. I realize that Sweeney said that all the docs were fair game but the mandamus said that all the docs save for the Executive priv. docs.


So I guess the questions are 1. can they just use the production of the documents as a delay tactic? and 2. can the gov't just not give any documents and put the burden of proof on the plaintiffs? 3. It seems like the honor system is a pathetic choice by Sweeney given that the defense has done nothing to be honorable to date, so was the honor system the only other choice she had?
