Trump lawyers under fire for stonewalling prosecutors in Stormy Daniels hush money case​

Prosecutors working out of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's office are asking the judge in the Stormy Daniels hush money case to intercede and force Donald Trump's lawyers to provide a list of their expert witnesses after stonewalling them for months.

"Prosecutors say Trump’s lawyers ignored two months of emails starting in August, refusing to respond to their repeated requests that the defense team identify who in the world they’re planning to call at trial," the report states.

Recalcitrant.

Recalcitrant.

I had to look up "recalcitrant" in the dictionary.. It had Joe, Hunter and Hillary's picture. It referenced Pelosi, Trudeau, Shiff, and a few others too.

One would imagine if there was an actual answer to the accusation in the post this one quoted, we'd be reading it instead of a lame attempt to drag the thread off the topic of the GOP front runner for 2024's various legal issues.

No, it didn’t.

The delays have reached their limit.

During a hearing in New York on Monday, which Trump attended, Judge Juan Merchan said the criminal trial against the former president will begin on April 15 with jury selection. The judge dismissed the Trump’s motion to toss out the indictment altogether or delay the trial further.

--

Former President Donald Trump said Monday that he would have "no problem" testifying in his criminal hush money trial that is now scheduled to begin next month.

"I would have no problem testifying. I didn't do anything wrong," Trump told reporters after attending a hearing in that trial in New York.

Let's get back to talking about Hunter Biden.

Plenty of threads for that.

This thread is about one of Trump's criminal indictments (and now the impending trial).

Hopefully once we get there the actual trial will be quick.

Calm down, 'twas marly a jest.

Per NYT, Trump has launched a private lawsuit against the judge.

The latest lawsuit from Trump is a last-minute attempt to delay the trial, which is set to begin 15 April in New York City.

How dare Trump interfere with the plan! The idea is to keep him tied up during election season and convict him of anything, as long as there is not enough time for the appeal to change the verdict before the election.

Mostly things grand juries have indicted him for.

as long as there is not enough time for the appeal to change the verdict before the election.

If that happens, it'll be his own fault for delaying things. His lawyers have been open about wanting the trials after the election.

How does involving Trump in yet another lawsuit keep him out of court? Particularly since, at least what I've seen so far, legal experts expect Trump's attempt to fail.

He should have thought of that when committing crimes in 2016/17.

In the end it will all backfire.

What crimes? Evidence?

 

[Hans Blaster]

What crimes? Evidence?

Would you prefer if I said "alleged crimes? -- in particular the ones charged in his NY County indictment (business records fraud).

If you were to hold yourself to the same standard you expect of others that would be more accurate. Even more accurate would be contrived crimes not equally applied against other individuals who are not a political threat to the current administration.

What, like being charged with multiple counts of falsifying business records to cover up illegal campaign donations in New York state?
