Guess who is now being sued for, Wait For It, Real estate fraud? Yep, Letitia James. This should be interesting.

When an actual subpoena has been issued, let us know.

Swing and a miss.

I didn't realize a lawsuit required a subpoena, is this something new, or is this speculation on your part?

Triple G

Seems to be the remedy he's seeking; a subpoena for documents she has. It's the board of directors (including the plaintiff) who would be the defendant in the case.

"The AG appointed an interim board of directors and Doyle was persuaded not to try to collect his money or foreclose on the mortgage before July 2023.

But by August 2023, he still hadn’t been repaid, so he initiated foreclosure proceedings — and promptly was blocked by the AG, who claimed the mortgage was invalid because he was a board member.

On Friday, Doyle launched a lawsuit against the society (not against James) and requested a subpoena be issued against James requiring her to produce a raft of documents, including anything relating to campaign events hosted at the townhouse or any contributions to her political campaigns from the society or any of its members or directors."

The only way that trump can file an appeal under New York state law is to post a bond.

According to the trump appeal filing to stay the bond posting, trump couldn't as of their filing find anyone to agree to post the bond for him.

So just how do you believe that trump is going to be able to successfully appeal the amount due to the State of New York without following the State of New York appeal process?

Not true. He may also appeal through the Federal courts based on U.S. Constitutional violations of his 5th, 8th, and 14th Amendment rights. All of those were violated in NY State courts. Happens all the time in civil and criminal cases.

Let's see how your theories hold up.

5th Amendment - unless indicted by a Grand Jury.

https://constitution.congress.gov/constitution/amendment-5/#:~:text=No%20person%20shall%20be%20held,the%20same%20offence%20to%20be

Yes, trump was indicted by a Grand Jury on March 30, 2023 in the business fraud case.

8th Amendment - excessive bail or fines.

trump was found liable for business fraud, the amount of the fine included $355 Million for disgorgement, a term of returning ill-gotten gains, plus $98 Million in prejudgement interest, which will accrue every day until it's paid.

14th Amendment - due process of law

https://constitution.congress.gov/constitution/amendment-14/

Exactly which part of the 14th Amendment in your opinion applies to trump's business fraud case?

If it's section 1, trump was afforded due process under the law, but the evidence was overwhelmingly stacked in favor of the eventual ruling.

Trump broke the law by falisfying his financial statements, committed Tax Fraud at the Local, State, and Federal levels. He committed Insurance Fraud by submitting falsified financial statements. He also committed Bank Fraud by submitting falsified Financial Statements.

Actions have consequences!

trump knowingly chose to submit FALSE Financial Statements!

Don't even try to argue that the banks got their money back on the loans. If trump had submitted truthful Financial Statements, the banks would have charged a higher interest rate on those loans. In one division of Deutsche Bank, trump was turned down, then turned to a different division which was whale hunting.

“Donald Trump does not have a moral compass when it comes to America’s standing in the world, how we interact with our adversaries, and he certainly puts his interests before the country. So if an oligarch in … Russia or a Chinese business official wants to help him get his money, I have no question that he would end up accepting it,” Farah Griffin, who served in the Trump administration, told CNN’s Sara Sidner on Thursday.

Mine are not theories. They are derived from the spoken words of legal luminaries such as Alan Dershowitz and Professor Jonathon Turley. They were not made from whole cloth as the NY AG and that moronic judge Juan Merchan did.

The 5th Amendment also guarantees due process and does not specify criminal or civil actions; read the entire amendment.
The 8th Amendment prohibits excessive fines. $400 million plus is pure fantasy, since there was no civil infraction. Deutsche Bank, on which this case is partly based, filed no complaint, civil or otherwise, with the NY AG office.
The 14th Amendment also guarantees due process.

I guess you should send Donald Trump a bill for rent. He's taken up residence in your feeble mind, and you haven't the smarts to charge him for it.

Turley and Dershowitz are following Eastman, Giuliani, Cohen, Powell, Ellis, Clark, et al down the trump reputation ending rabbit hole.

Dershowitz and Turley are no longer "legal luminaries" by any means.

You really need better legal guidance than from those two has been (choke, choke, cough, cough) lawyers.

Yes, trump did have his due process in court.

It was his incompetent legal team which wasn't effective in their defense of trump, missing deadline after deadline throughout the pretrial period.

I thought that trump only hired the best people, why didn't he hire Dershowitz or Turley if they're allegedly so great?
