No. 63 12 doesn't require a victim, simply the fraudulent act.

Doesn't matter.

Also doesn't matter.

My understanding is that the case actually didn't accuse any tax violations. The AG used the tax assessments as evidence he was falsifying records but didn't actually claim he didn't pay the taxes he needed to.
How doesn't it matter?? The State of NY does the tax assessments, not Trump lol!

Again, if they are loans, anyone can "say" anything they want,

They simply can't. Not in New York.

If you want a corporate loan, or to insure certain things, then there are certain legal reporting requirements that the corporation has to meet. Failure to do so constitutes fraud.

the loan originators are responsible for due diligence.

And those lending are legally required to correctly disclose their financial conditions. And to continue to correctly do so.

Failure to do so is fraud under New York law. It simply doesn't matter whether the lender conducted their due diligence or not.

Much of this sounds like grandstanding by the Judge and AG.

Much of this has been ruled as fraud by the judge.

New York appeals courts have already rejected multiple appeals, including those seeking to stay the judge's partial summary judgement.

Most recently (December 12th) a full five judge panel was unanimous in rejecting the appeal. The entire order is just three sentences. That's the legal equivalent of "lol, NO".

The only questions now are how much the fines will be and whether the Trump Organisation is allowed to retain a licence to do business in New York.

Yeah, Trump's legal team tried the "yeah, we lied, but the bank shouldn't have believed us" defense. We'll see shortly if Judge Engoron bought it.

-- A2SG, betting he didn't....

When you make two different, contrary statements on the same issue of fact, that's fraud. That misrepresentation is also morally wrong.

If you missed the testimony, Deutsche Bank claimed to have done their own evaluations and claim to have not been defrauded.

But don't let the lack of victims here stop your celebration.

Yeah, we know.

But...neither one of us has the specific knowledge of the NY legal code that Judge Engoron has. He's the one who will decide if that defense is enough to rule Trump not guilty of the charges of fraud.

-- A2SG, and let's not forget...Trump has already been ruled guilty of that. So...

In the illegal way. Honestly, this forum has discussed this case extensively, and I don't feel like bringing somebody up to speed on the basics of the case. Search and read.
Your choice...

Sounds like much of it is a witch hunt and grandstanding by the Judge and the AG...its politically driven IMO

The tax assessments are not the issue. The issue if the balance sheets he presented to banks and investors, which vastly inflated his net worth.

Again, so what? banks and investors do their own due diligence. You have an asset YOU say is worth 1000. Do banks and investors just believe you? No. They assess it themselves.

Actually, it is your choice to not do some research.

A choice that offers Trump fans plausible deniability in regard to his malfeasance. A tool to enable further self-deception. And the pain is real for his misguided cult. It is a good thing. We heal and learn only if we can admit our errors. Some people can heal, some will choose unhappiness in their obstinance. I try avoid them. It's more difficult for them to deceive themselves without someone there defending truth. They don't have a scapegoat to blame for their misguided delusions. Only themselves.

Letitia James?
Sorry. The poster said he broke New York laws. You asked how so. I pointed out how so.

Or wait. I'm sure some people don't have a problem with him using funds from his own charity groups right? Yes. Yet another crime his supporters hoped to be talking about because the verdict hasn't come back yet so supporters can say

Then it seems like you are having difficulty understanding the law and process (maybe also the situation). That is not a judge and AG problem.
