The Supreme Court surprised a legal expert last week by rejecting an application from one of President Donald Trump's sordid allies. Roy Moore, the former chief justice of the Alabama Supreme Court who has faced extensive allegations of sexual misconduct, appealed to the Supreme Court to reinstate a more than $8 million judgment he was awarded from a lower court that was later vacated by the 11th Circuit in a defamation case. The judgment arose from a lawsuit against a political group that accused Moore of soliciting sex from a minor while at a shopping mall many years ago. Trump previously endorsed Moore in the 2017 Alabama special election against Democrat Doug Jones for the seat vacated by former Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL) after Sessions was nominated as Trump's first Attorney General. Attorney Shant Karnikian was astounded by the Supreme Court's decision and reacted to it on a new episode of the podcast he co-hosts with attorney Brian Kabateck, "Civil Action."Karnikian pointed out two ironic aspects of the case. First, the application to the Supreme Court was denied by Justice Clarence Thomas, who handles appeals from the 11th Circuit. Karnikian noted that Thomas "is not the most liberal person" and seemed to be siding with victims of sexual misconduct in the case. Karnikian also found it ironic that Moore is appealing his case at a time when he is running a conservative organization called The Foundation for Moral Law. "I wonder what people like this, how they feel about people like Trump and all of his many transgressions, for lack of a better term," Karnikian said.
