Yes. It is fairly standard for lawyers to give the judge "proposed" orders for them to sign. Otherwise the judge has to write the order and that may take a long time. What is unusual about this is taking it to a *specific* friendly judge. Normally appealing something from a bankruptcy court to the federal court you get a random assignment of judges. Since there are a lot of them, chances are low this would get to Whyte and normally given his association with the case and the bad PR he got out of it, he would refuse to take the case. But it did get into Whyte court, and I think it has a brand new case number as well. In fact, since *I* got the notice instead of my bankruptcy lawyer, he may not even be aware of this case and the case my not have an assigned lawyer of record for me. I would be more upset about it, but we can add an examination of possible corruption of the Federal Courts to the material which will be reviewed in Canada by the Immigration and Refugee board.
