Obviously the DEA is dragging their feet. They're going to lose finding due to marijuana legislation.

At issue is DEA’s insistence on digitally submitting tens of thousands of public comments it received in response to the proposed rule to move cannabis from Schedule I to Schedule III of the Controlled Substances Act (CSA) as evidence in the hearings.
They are trying to slow the court down. The court is pissed.
Why are they requiring paper? Seems to me like electronic would be much faster, hence my confusion.
There is some metagame shit going on. The DEA is being a massive pain in the ass and has provided faulty or misleading info several times. The DEA wants to submit a massive amount of information, most of which has no bearing on the case. The judge is telling them that they need to print it, catalog and organize it and bring it all in.
The DEA knows that there is absolutely no logical argument for Marijuana being Schedule 1, so they are trying to delay everything by jamming up the works. The judge is simply asking them to comply with the law. The DEA refused to comply with the law, and court is pissed.
They should hire you, this simple explanation could have easily replaced that entire article.
Is there really nothing we can do about pulling this kind of horseshit in court? It would free up so much. We might not even have a Nazi for president in the next few days if our courts weren't so backed up with meaningless cases/motions? I know it's a slippery slope, but there has to be something.
Well the judge blasted them, so clearly something was accomplished.
