A reminder: Lawfare won't be traveling to Fort Meade to take in, almost live and via CCTV broadcast, the rest of this week's pretrial hearing in the 9/11 case.  We will thus resort to our backup coverage format, by posting digests of each prior day's events in our "Events Coverage" section. We thus commence with Matt Danzer's rundown of yesterday's session---wherein the prosecution successfully urged the military judge to rescind a prior order, which had severed the case against Ramzi Binalshibh from that pending against four other accused 9/11 plotters.
