For sure. This isn’t even the way to run a clown car, much less a criminal felony case against a former FBI director.

Also I don’t know if the extender applies when the first indictment was obtained essentially in bad faith.

No idea when the indictment was obtained by someone who couldn’t present it in the first place. Never mind all the substantive challenges to what grand jury heard. I suspect they’ll re-present the case with a different pros. if only to avoid Comey just refiling his other motions to dismiss.

It’s like saying a ham sandwich is a pb and j sandwich because they both have bread. Haha.

Because they’re based on completely different processes with different fact-finders, evidentiary rules, and involvement of the defense. A finding of probable cause by a judge in a preliminary hearing simply cannot equate to a finding of probable cause by a grand jury.

An information is a different type of charging document that results from a completely different procedure. Th two documents (at least in terms of felony charges) are not interchangeable.
