JackBandit posted:I feel reasonably plugged into politics and I really don’t understand how jurisdiction works. Why is it up to any judge to just say how they feel about things? And is there some sort of time limit on how long they have to wait? Can they drag this out indefinitely by having one chudge take the baton with a bullshit ruling every 6 weeks? There was one particular judge in north Texas (can't remember if it's east or west) that was the go-to for chudly things like trying to kill the ACA. It is utter bullshit, and the cronyism of the judiciary was starkly laid out late in the Obama Presidency and on through Trump's. Appointment for life should end since it now means multiple decades in a time when societal change and evolution is vastly more rapid than the Enlightenment era this rules were initially drawn up in.

I don't think this case has standing this is probably the chud judge who always gets smacked in appeals. The fact it looks like it was typed on a typewriter just reinforces that belief.

It also invalidates the entire Executive order which already is a legal can of worms because uh what about the money refunded???? literally its from the insane fucker and the order itself is a one page fuckup that will get held because he pushed it through with no standing defined or damages besides the two people angry because they didnt do anything

In fact, I'd heard prior to that about being careful about consolidation because it'd be possible for that to gently caress stuff up. No real point in trying to blow the whole thing up I guess though. But it is utter bullshit that there was some arbitrary deadline for rolling poo poo over into a forgivable format.

The problem is this is in the Fifth Circuit. The appeals court will uphold it and instead of a typewriter the opinion will be written on a poo poo-stained piece of toilet paper. It's going to end up in the Supreme Court.

Just my opinion up b but there shouldn’t be a threshold to getting it forgiven. It should be open to everyone. Doctorates or under. Isn’t that why it was rejected? Because the people who brought the lawsuit didn’t qualify for it?

Let's not have this thread devolve into arguing about the program. It's intended to be a help/information thread, so until something more develops just let it sit. I'm putting it on slow mode for the moment to help encourage that.

Why did this specific federal judge cause them to pause it when the Nebraska case has already effectively stalled it for the same reason? Does the Texan judge somehow pose more of a threat?

they should have just cancelled the entirety of the outstanding loans. why go with some half hearted poo poo when you know repubs are going to fight tooth and nail to stop it no matter what the dollar figure is. might as well go big for maximum support of the plebeians e: it also may be worth changing the thread title so american goons aren't falsely led into believing that student loan debt forgiveness began in october 2022 (or perhaps will begin at all?) hot cocoa on the couch fucked around with this message at 19:54 on Nov 11, 2022 |

You know, if we just handed Texas over to Mexico we could probably make Puerto Rico a state and not have to change the flag. I don't know what kind of other stuff we'd have to throw in for Mexico to want it though.

So for now just expect to be paying our student loans back come January 2023? That is what I am working off of currently, and am trying to base my monthly spending around that assumption.

whats this talk about consolidation? I have a handful of loans out there; i'm paying 2 different companies. was i supposed to have consolidated them into one lump sum? my payments are based on total amt owed, so it never crossed my mind that id need to something extra. also the application didnt mention anything at the time.

You may need to consolidate to enter income driven repayment plans and for payments to qualify for pslf. It doesn’t have anything to do with the 10/20k loan forgiveness asfaik

The Eighth Circuit has ruled that the six states in the Nebraska case have standing and the case will move forward. The Fifth Circuit will likely rule the same in their case. The appeals process will last well past January, at which point the new term of Congress will start and the Republicans will be able to file a lawsuit from the House. It's pretty much over.
