" hile the merits of the Indiana Pensioners' case can be argued, what is clear is that the speed with which this case has proceeded through the courts is a violation of simple due process. White and Case, a mere ten days ago, announced that as part of their discovery they received 87,000 documents totaling 385,000 pages from 39 separate productions. How one law firm even working 24 hours a day has even a remote chance of going though all of this and prepare any semblance of an argument is laughable. And these productions were received as recently as 3 days before the Fiat sale hearing: the government's strategy of literally drowning the law firm with data has worked, and the courts are complicit in this derailing of procedure. But in a case where one lawyer calls another lawyer a "terrorist", there is little that can surprise anymore."
