Azizi linked the new order from the judge, but omitted from the quote a comment at the site:

"As a special bonus, make sure you check out footnote 1. Hahahahahahahahaha!"

The pdf appears to be one of those "new-fangled" special feature things that blocks copying portions of the text, but my retyping of the "footnote" is:

"1. If either party believes that it would be helpful to solicit clarification from the White House regarding the President's position on the proper interpretation of ยง 3683 in light of his Grant of Executive Clemency, they are encouraged to do so."

In other words, fat chance the &#@% knows what he did or what he intended to do?

I do not get the impression that the judge is pleased with this disposition, but I may be wrong of course. The entire constuction of the order seems ... "unctuously polite?"
