With his appeal denied, DOJ asks court to instruct Steve Bannon to report to prison (Update: Bannon ordered to prison by July 1) (1 Viewer)

By a unanimous jury in district court in DC in July 2022, Bannon was found guilty of contempt of Congress for failing to respond to his lawful and served subpoena from the January 6 investigation. He was sentenced to four months and last week, the DC Circuit denied his appeal . . . which Bannon's attorney had previously described as "a bulletproof appeal". Though he theoretically could get relief from the SCOTUS, the high court refused Peter Navarro's writ in a nearly identical case in April.

With his appeal exhausted, DOJ moved the district court today to instruct Bannon to report to prison.

I couldn't remember and thought this was the case. I see the same outcome with Bannon.
