RapidcreekTrump Says He’s Too Rich To Post Bond In Carroll Defamation Case
The meat:
“Having argued to the jury that President Trump has great financial resources, Plaintiff is in no position to contradict herself now and contend that she requires the protection of a bond during the brief period while post-trial motions are pending,” he huffs. “This fact nullifies risk to the judgment creditor and weighs heavily in favor of an unsecured stay.”
Only problem with that is that it's not Plaintiff who is requiring a bond pending appeal. It is the United States of America.
gregorumI thought it was the state of New York, but whatever
This time.
The E. Jean Carroll defamation case was in federal court.
It really is hard to keep track of all of his criminal trials.
It really is
Yes, but the E. Jean Carroll case was a civil trial.
In case anyone thought there was any aspect of the law Trump hasn’t shit on.
Oh, shit! This article is about the cheap fine!
Donny is in deep shit then.
(I don’t think this one is a “fine”, bit they other is and I don’t know the right words.)
The legal term for Engoron's ruling (New York state civil fraud judgment) is "undertaking." In the Carroll case (Kaplan, federal defamation), it's "damages," a large portion of which are punitive damages.
Thank you
charlesYou missed the other meat about judge Kaplan suffering no fools.
What bullshit mental gymnastics of an argument. “I am above the law” is how it reads.
“I’m a great driver, so why are you giving me a ticket for not wearing a seat belt, officer?”
