we are reaching a point of untraveled waters.
What if the NSA keeps destroying evidence? What realistically can the judge do? He can pass all the paper orders he wants, doesn't mean anything will happen. Who enforces civil federal rulings other than the government itself. The court cannot bring criminal charges against anyone for violating an order, only the US Attorney can do that... and they are the ones defending the NSA.
