I was amused to see that this brief did not discuss the use of the material showing that Lisa Cook did not violate the law. This filing ignores that material and is arguing that trump's decision is not reviewable by the courts.

When one party uses material that is not in the record below normally the other side will object. Here the DOJ did not object and is hoping that the DC Court of Appeals will ignore the fact that Lisa Cook did not violate the law. Here is the footnote that the DOJ is ignoring

6 The complete property records reveal the opposite. See, e.g., Fed Governor Lisa Cook claimed 2nd residence as ‘vacation home,’ undercutting Trump fraud claims, Assoc. Press (Sept. 12, 2025), https://apnews.com/article/federal-reserve-lisa-cook trump-852820c83e5001ec3b6e2d14047965c9 (affirming, based on the review of bank documents, that Governor Cook designated her Atlanta property for use as a “Vacation Home”).
