There is no rush, there is just no good reason for delay other than its advantageous to Trump. - Lapsody
Then there should have been no problem for the Judge to grant the extra sixty days requested by the defense to review the massive last minute document dump by the prosecution
Criminals should be prosecuted for their crimes - why does he have so many? Could it be - that he's a criminal?
Entirely irrelevant to the case at hand. Well except the well known fact is planted in the brains of some jurors, but they have state they will set it aside. I question whether that is possible and biases will be at work even on a subconscious level. The judge is fine with it as long as they say the words.
You think all the convictions will be overturned? On what basis?
I think you mean all the charges before the court of his honor Judge Juan Merchant...
The basis for appeal are many
1) A change of venue was in order but denied. The jury pool is drawn from a biased pool of registered voters in the district of Manhattan, voters who voted 90% for Biden.
2) A recusal was in order over the conflict of interest posed by Judge Juan Merchan's daughter being a top democrat consultant/operative.
3) The charge itself is a faulty Frankenstein creation taking a misdemeanor whose statute of limitations was expired and bring it back to life by bolting on a federal election violation. A violation so vile, yet so subtle, that both the FEC and DOJ looked at and could not find an election violation.
4) The gag order applying only to the defense.
5) The original point that the timing of the trial was political. This was done to deny Trump the opportunity to campaign. The NY statute requiring the defendant's physical presence may be unconstitutional when applied to this case.
