In reply to the discussion: Schiff says House will make a criminal referral of Trump ally Erik Prince for possible perjury [View all]BumRushDaShow

They have generally requested expedited court reviews for "high-profile" cases and have gotten it because it is coming from Congress. If they hadn't and it took that long, then we would have still had the original "Muslim Ban" in place as well as many other egregious bullshit stuff that had to be changed to continue or had to be ditched altogether. Doesn't mean that they won't try to find other ways around it but then that delays them.
If Congress skips over their process, the courts will send it right back and tell them to "follow their rules".
People who are at the bottom of the list of federal court cases will always be the losers because these "high profile" types of cases will always take precedent.
