The federal judge overseeing former president and convicted felon Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago documents case has been a lightning rod of scorn and controversy for the government, legal commentators, and court watchers alike — largely due to the pace of the pretrial process. The public recently formalized its disdain by filing over 1,000 separate judicial ethics complaints in the span of one week.

That effort was rebuked by another federal judge who drew attention to the sheer volume of the complaints in a May 22 general order.

“These complaints appear to be part of an orchestrated campaign,” 11th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals Chief Judge William Pryor wrote. “The Chief Circuit Judge of the Eleventh Circuit has considered and dismissed four of those orchestrated complaints as merits-related and as based on allegations lacking sufficient evidence to raise an inference that misconduct has occurred.”
