Subject: Re: Trump gets special treatment yet again
And once again proving that our justice system treats the rich and powerful very differently.

And there's not even any reason given in the two page ruling for why the bond was reduced at all, let alone so much. That's what's frustrating a lot of the lawyers I hear in the media.

The ruling itself - https://www.washingtonpost.com...

It is ordered that the motion is granted to the extent of staying enforcement of
those portions of the Judgment,

(1) ordering disgorgement to the Attorney General of
$464,576,230.62, conditioned on defendants-appellants posting, within ten (10) days of
the date of this order, an undertaking in the amount of $175 million dollars;

(2) permanently barring defendants Weisselberg and McConney from serving in the
financial control function of any New York corporation or similar business entity;

(3) barring defendants Donald J. Trump, Weisselberg and McConney from serving as an
officer or director of any New York corporation for three years;

(4) barring defendant Donald J. Trump and the corporate defendants from applying for loans from New York
financial institutions for three years; and

(5) barring defendants Donald Trump, Jr. and Eric Trump from serving as an officer or director of any New York corporation in New York for two years. The aforesaid stay is conditioned on defendants-appellants
perfecting the appeals for the September 2024 Term of this Court. The motion is
otherwise denied, including to the extent it seeks a stay of enforcement of portions of the
judgment (1) extending and enhancing the role of the Monitor and (2) directing the
installation of an Independent Director of Compliance.

Note that those 5 items have been stayed not entirely eliminated.
