This is an ongoing story……

Approximately fifty Montana citizens came to witness the Montana Supreme Court’s judicial activism leveraged through the Office of Disciplinary Counsel (ODC) in an attempt to remove Attorney General Austin Knudsen’s license to practice law. A license that is required to serve as Montana’s elected Attorney General. A decision/opinion is expected shortly after arguments conclude on Thursday, October 10, or soon after.

Knudsen’s appearance stems from his representing the Montana Legislature when it was disclosed that judges across Montana colluded to pre-decide cases and take pre-determined stances against anticipated legislation from the 2021 session. The legislature subpoenaed the emails, proving the collusion happened and sparking a conflict between the legislative and judicial branches. Between 2,000 and 5,000 emails were provided to the legislature before the courts intervened to cover their apparent malfeasance.

The main arguments were:

1. That the emails contained sensitive information concerning unrelated cases, including cases involving children, and thus needed to be reviewed before being released.
2. That the AG informing the courts that the client (the Montana Legislature) did not recognize the court’s claim of authority in this case was a violation of the code of ethics. As the prosecution’s first witness, Retired Lawyer Randy Cox claimed the AG’s actions in this instance were unusual. (However, this was an extraordinary circumstance because the court appeared to be attempting to cover up its own unethical actions, and thus, the legislature was required to assert its constitutional judicial oversight role.)

Basic civics does not support the idea of three “co-equal” branches and thus the legislature, as the superior branch had every right to subpoena the email evidence of collusion and not to recognize the court when it attempted to strongarm the legislature and avoid accountability for the courts own unethical activities. The legislature is the most powerful of the three branches, followed by the executive and judicial. This is a fact that has been true since the nation’s founding.

The five members of the committee, pictured below, would be the ones who could attempt to remove the people’s duly elected Attorney General.

What was not addressed at the beginning is that if the judges had not colluded, the legislature would never have had to intervene.

Further updates will come as this story develops.
