Per Raffi Melkonian:
Judge #Boasberg is building insurance against appellate review. He wants the appeals court to see that the district judge gave #DOJ every opportunity to comply w/ his orders.
It's just very difficult to get a contempt order or something similar to stick, especially against DOJ.
It’s not how it should work, but it’s the world we live in.
Even this level of restraint & patience may not work.
