Here is the Administrative Order (AO) assigning judges, effective January 14th. It has yet to be posted on the 17th Circuit's website, probably due to the courthouse closure confusion.
How did we do?
*UPDATE* - Now that we've had a little time to review the AO, it turns out JAABLOG was 100% accurate in predicting the swaps. Reading Wednesday Notes in conjunction with JAABLOG MOVEMENT, it turns out the blog nailed all eighteen reassignments, weeks before they became official.
Of course the blog is almost always dead on, despite what old friend Dale Ross says. As you may have heard, old Dale took the stand in defense of Gardiner a couple weeks ago, once again trashing the blog's accuracy while steadfastedly maintaining he's never read it. Whatever. Still, it's nice to know the blog and its supporters are correct (as usual), which is why today's AO is forever dedicated to the former Chief Judge.*
* We're also watching the upcoming pick by Rick Scott to replace David Krathen, expected sometime around December 20th. If it goes to Liz Scherer or John Fry (with Fry's seat subsequently going to Liz), Bill Scherer will also get a JAABLOGDedication, since he complained from the stand during Gardiner's trial that the blog was wrong about Judge Scherer ...
