Notable cases: Holcim 160m $

It was reported in June 2021 that Cannon ordered Swiss cement company LafargeHolcim to reach a settlement to compensate an American family under the Helms-Burton Act for using the family's property in Cuba, which had been seized by the Cuban government in 1960. Before Cannon's order, no one had managed to secure compensation under the Helms-Burton Act for business property confiscated in Cuba.[31] Holcim laut Bericht vor 160-Mio.-$-Kuba-Vergleich — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2003:DC:F1C:2700:9880:763F:6D97:3F (talk) 17:05, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

-:''Newsweek'': a trio of legal experts—Norm Eisen, attorney and former U.S. ambassador to the Czech Republic; Richard W. Painter, former chief White House ethics lawyer, and Fred Wertheimer, attorney and president of Democracy 21—said Cannon should recuse herself from the classified documents proceedings, or the DOJ should launch proceedings to have her recused.
-:''Salon'':
-:* Former Trump attorney Tim Parlatore, who recently resigned from the team, told the outlet that the allegations in the indictment are damning.
-:* Carol Lam, a former federal judge and U.S. attorney, told MSNBC that Cannon's earlier rulings suggests "she bends over backwards a little bit more for the former president" but how that would play out in a trial "remains to be seen."
-:''Daily Beast'':
-:* Former U.S. Attorney Joyce Vance [tweeted] that Cannon’s latest order "may tee up the issue of her fitness on this case.
-:* Andrew Weissmann, a former Assistant U.S. Attorney, suggested the same—[tweeting] that Cannon's order is "off base."

-: There's a cottage industry of people giving opinions about how high-profile, ongoing legal cases are conducted.  Per [[WP:NOTNEWS]], I would leave all this commentary out, both here and in the [[Tanya S. Chutkan]] article and in any similar BLPs on judges.

-:::"Wikipedia considers the enduring notability of persons and events." I don't think that reflexive, as-it-happens commentary on pre-trial motions has any lasting value.  Wait and see what happens.  If some of her rulings get reversed by a higher court, as happened last year, then that can be included.  There's no rush.

-:These expert opinions, from very high profile people, are clearly significant and need to be adressed. Her role in Trump's cases has become a major debate in itself. Were it not for that role, she would be a very obscure figure that virtually noone had heard of, so most of her notability is derived from her involvement in Trump's cases. --[[User:Tataral|Tataral]] ([[User talk:Tataral|talk]]) 22:50, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

-:We should keep the body and lead content. This is a major feature of reliable source coverage for the past month, and I have no reason to doubt that it will continue. We might add some content to the body about other legal experts defending her, especially after she made some decisions unfavorable to the defense (see, e.g., [https://www.nytimes.com/2023/07/21/us/judge-cannon.html?searchResultPosition=1 this NYT piece]). NOTNEWS discussion are tough—we often have reasonable but opposite interpretations of the policy. I do think the arguments based on sleuthing the political leanings of source authors should be discarded.

-===Update===
-I restored this and it was immediately removed again, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Diff/1179083753/cur in this edit]. Any concern about the in-line sourcing can easily be addressed, per this thread. I'm not going to engage in this edit-war. {{ping|Starship.paint}}, or any volunteer, please restore this article content.[[User:SPECIFICO |<b style="color: #0011FF;"> SPECIFICO</b>]][[User_talk:SPECIFICO | ''talk'']] 14:34, 11 October 2023 (UTC)
-:I still believe it's best to leave it out, regardless of how many cites you can pile on.  Legal pundits and their opinions are dime a dozen, what really matters is what happens in court and whether any of her decisions later get overturned or otherwise criticized by an appeals court.  Wait and see what happens.  Same applies to the [[Tanya S. Chutkan]] article and the [[Arthur Engoron]] article if there was one and the same for any other judge presiding over any other high-profile case.

-::Nothing that happens in court will ever demonstrate anything othere than expert opinion that she was biased.

-Nope, most of the current sources are still not good enough. (1) [[WP:RSP]]: {{tq|Newsweek articles since 2013 are not generally reliable}}. (2) WP:RSP: {{tq|There is no consensus on the reliability of Salon}}. (3) WP:RSP: {{tq|There is no consensus on the reliability of The Daily Beast.}} (4) New Yorker - OK. (5) Opinion article in the New York Times. (6) [[WP:NEWSBLOG]] by MSNBC that certainly reads like a column - "whacked-out rulings for Trump". So, only one (4th sources) of out six are okay. What we need are news articles from reliable sources. Also I am not sure how anyone would think that questioning a judge's impartiality is uncontroversial.
