Posts: 1740Judge Griesa should have been fired
The day he blocked legal payments to a majority group of bondholders, to help the holdout Vulture funds. He could have slapped contempt charges and penalties on Argentina without doing this and forcing a technical default. But he's pretty much accountable to nobody, and so can pretty much do what he wants.
As a federal judge he can't be fired. The only recourse would be for Congress to remove him through a lengthy process called impeachment and conviction. Which has only happened a few times in U.S. history. And there's no chance of that happening with a Republican House, since Judge Griesa is a Republican, and Paul Singer is a Republican and a major donor to Republicans.
Apparently Griesa has a history of arrogance and abuse of judicial power. As evidenced by statements from other lawyers and judges at the link below.
Federal judges cannot be fired and have no mandatory retirement age

Fabrega was likely the last hope for Argentina before they do something even more stupid than making a mountain out of a mole hill. Throw a 50% export tax on soybeans and expect farmers to continue business as usual. Argentina has the natural resources to be doing as well as Australia, but they are determined to continually screw everyone else and themselves in the process.

Posts: 577Argentina slams US judge after contempt decision
It seems to me that CFK is the one who is "silly", but I guess that plays well to the Argentine masses.

Posts: 577USA Judge holds Argentina in contempt over bond payment plan
It is too bad that Griesa cannot put some of the Argentine players in jail for contempt like he can for Americans. It will be interesting to see what happens if CFK or her cohorts travel to the USA.

Like an English Cop would say "Stop or I'll say Stop Again! ".
Had to laugh!
Paranoid about someone blowing up the McDonald's I guess.

He came to BA with a US $100,000,000 line of credit and invented factoring outside of the Argentine banking system by creating financial cooperatives.
He left a billionaire.

Posts: 1657This is what Argentina gets for writing such ridiculous bond terms. A good CAC would have put a stop to all this nonsense. Having said that. These funds better hurry up and negotiate while they still have the upper hand. Global opinion (not just hedge fund investors) is against them. And the voices are growing louder. IMF, WB, UN, EU, US State Department, UK courts, France, Germany, most well respected economists etc.

What the US governments opinion is on debt and default. As least as far as the US of A is concerned. Luckily we can just print our way out of default.

Posts: 577Argentina Cites Willingness to Negotiate With Holdouts Next Year
Argentina is willing to negotiate, BUT only if the New York ruling is stayed. I guess that Argentina also believes that pigs can fly.
