Time's just acting real weird lately - this case was filed by the NY AG back in September 2022. These things usually take a year to get heard. And since Donnie already lost a bunch of points on the summary judgment request, and it's a bench trial, no sense in delaying things much more!

There is no indictment in this case. Indictments are from criminal charges. This is a civil case against trump, his large adult sons, and his companies.

The hush money case is the criminal indictment in NY with trial currently set in March of next year.

It's the civil trial in New York where he is accused of fraud or something because he told banks his properties were worth eleventy billion dollars when he wanted to borrow money against them and told the tax man they were only worth $4 when it came time to pay property taxes on them.

Mar A Lago is appraised at something like $20 million. Trump claimed like $300 million or more.

"But wait! All the surrounding beach front properties are much smaller and worth $20 million each or whatever"

When Trump bought there was an attachment to the deed or whatever that says he can't develop or live in the property and this limitation means the property is worth a small fraction as compared to the value if it was able to be developed. This is textbook fraud.

Don't get your hopes up too high. It's likely a reference to the videotaped depositions. I don't think the lawyers will put him on the stand, as he's apparently done three rounds of this at cameras outside the courtroom:

So apparently one of the talking head lawyers basically told the judge "there was no fraud here". A problem with that is that the judge has already ruled that there was fraud here!

One of the funnier details in this fraud case is that Trump claimed his penthouse was 2.5x the actual size when valuing it for loan collateral, then argued that square footage measurements are subjective when called out on it.

I had no idea because Judge Engoron (I keep wanting to type Energon) had all of his poo poo recently affirmed by the NY Appeals court. The NY Times cites this:

quote:

Mr. Trump’s best hope to derail the trial was the lawsuit against Justice Engoron, which the former president filed two weeks ago. In it, Mr. Trump’s lawyers argued that Justice Engoron had ignored an earlier appeals court decision in June that raised the prospect that some accusations against the former president might be too old to go to trial.

But the appeals court on Thursday appeared unmoved, and did not address those arguments in its order. It is unclear whether the ruling by a panel of five judges completely shut down Mr. Trump’s lawsuit against Justice Engoron. Although the ruling lifted a stay of the trial, it did not technically dismiss the former president’s claims against the judge.

Comrade Blyatlov posted:

This is the correct interpretation. It's his basic move - his condo is 10k square feet or 30k square feet depending on how he feels in the day and who he's talking to. The appeals court is either unanimously for him or hopelessly corrupt. It's bad faith that just can't be engaged with, the only winning move is not to play.

Also he's always looking to slam the magic I WIN button and if you point out that he just slammed his fist into a giant bowl of poo poo, he will tell you that he won. Can't really beat that level of brain pudding.

I looked it up earlier. NY has a court system whose labels seem odd. The Supreme Court is one of the trial courts. Then there are five appellate divisions above that, and finally a supreme court called the Court of Appeals. This case has not reached the top.

It did reach the 1st appellate division, though. In that case, the panel found that the there were two potential dates for the statute of limitations - one in 2014 and one in 2016. Since everything attributed to Ivanka was from 2011, she was dropped from the suit. However, the appellate court also discussed the effect two different statutes had (they were both retroactive) and left it to the trial court to determine exactly how the SoL ran past the 2014 and 2016 dates depending on the party charged and the particular offense. A very uninformed reading of the appellate decision says that this cause of action fails because the alleged loans at the basis of the fraud occurred in 2010/2011, but that ignores the continuous and repeat fraud from 2014 on that is well within the scope of the NY statutes.

https://www.nycourts.gov/courts/ad1/calendar/List_Word/2023/06_Jun/27/PDF/People%20of%20NY%20%20v%20%20Trump%20%20(2023-00717).pdf

Remember, anytime that refers to the Supreme Court they're referring to the trial court or the current appellate division.
