That was my first thought. Nobody in their right mind bakes at 400C and even the cleaning cycle doesn't do 800C.

I have no idea why they were talking about sous vide, you don't do that in an oven.

There is no need for the judge to take everything claimed at face value. They should at least make sure everything passes the smell test. The judge should be required to understand the implications of his orders or run it past a neutral party who does.

They should also consider if an ex parte hearing is even justified. For example, if the other party could easily delete evidence anyway and there would be no proof it actually existed before or that it wasn't destroyed in the normal course of business before the order came down, then the point is moot and so the hearing shouldn't be allowed. The party present should be on notice that there will be a hair trigger for perjury charges so they better be above board in every way.
