"A judge has ordered President Barack Obama to appear in court in Atlanta for a hearing on a complaint that says Obama isn't a natural-born citizen and can't be president.
It's one of many such lawsuits that have been filed across the country, so far without success. A Georgia resident made the complaint, which is intended to keep Obama's name off the state's ballot in the March presidential primary."

(25,592 posts)Those idiots have no idea how much vetting Obama had to endure to be sworn in as President.
Also if there were any real questions, some other countries would have something to say about it. Nothing.

(36,974 posts)Right now there are currently 6 ballot challenges against President Obama (4 in Georgia, 2 in Texas), the complaints filed are basically saying that since Obama's father was born in Kenya and not a US citizen that Barack Obama is not a 'natural born citizen'. There was one other challenge filed and it was dismissed and now in the Appeals Court.
There's a LIST of them on this PDF link: PDF: http://tesibria.typepad.com/whats_your_evidence/BIRTHER%20CASE%20LIST.pdf
On the link above TONS of birther court cases are listed on the first 20 pages,
and then starting on page 21 there's a separate list of 2012 ballot challenges.
=================
p.s. I posted about the ballot challenges filed on Obama last week, but I didn't get much of a positive response on the thread,

(1,903 posts)This was an open and shut case to have quashed and somehow the defense counsel managed to f it up. As it turns out, there is a worse attorney than Orly Taitz.
On the other hand, I would be on the floor howling with laughter, if Obama jumped on Air Force One (remember Orly, YOU have to pay for his travel expenses), flew down to Georgia, and presented a brand-spanking new and crisp copy of his birth certificate. The judge in this hearing (Yes, Orly, a hearing, not a trial you keep pretending it is) will have no choice but to accept it, thus turning the hearing into a joke.

(37,990 posts)Perhaps I'm too much of a layperson but according to this:
http://www.scribd.com/doc/76155903/Georgia-Primary-Ballot-Challenge-Obama-Order-to-Consolidate-by-Judge-Malihi
The Judge set a date for a consolidation hearing. As best I can decipher, there are 5 plaintiffs and this hearing is designed to combine all 5 cases to save the state/court money and time.
I'm not finding an order of subpoena for the president...

(1,903 posts)Judge Malihi used to have blank subpoenas available, complete with his signature at the required line, on his section of the GA courts website, presumably for the legitimate use within Georgia (I'm not a lawyer, but it's my understanding that they are entirely acceptable within state jurisdiction).
Orly Taitz found about this and has since been churning out subpoenas by the minute. The blank subpoenas have since been removed from Judge Malihis website, but Orly still has them and is still insisting that they are proper and valid, even when served on out-of-state/jurisdiction recipients.
