The fact is the bank never complained about jurisdiction until after the verdict. The Justice had to deny the appeal with federal reserve notes or he would be dishonoring the jury verdict for the case. This would effectually nullify the jury verdict which is an impossibility. Common Law Juries decide FACTS and LAW. They (the jury) don't even need have a rationale for doing it! They don't have to explain themselves. Should Mahoney been in contempt of the jury and guilty of treason? The Justice has a higher duty to the Constitution than the Minnesota Supreme Court. He didn't take an oath to the Supreme Court! He took to the Constitution. But of course how did it end up? Dismissal with prejudice to both sides.
