Trump Fraud Trial Will Start Oct. 2



Justice won't be delayed in the State of New York's fraud (and more) case against the Malignant Loser (our emphasis):

An appeals court Thursday rejected Donald Trump’s bid to delay a civil trial in a lawsuit brought by New York’s attorney general, allowing the case to proceed days after a judge ruled the former president committed years of fraud and stripped him of some companies as punishment.

The decision, by the state’s intermediate appellate court, clears the way for Judge Arthur Engoron to preside over a non-jury trial starting Monday in Manhattan in New York Attorney General Letitia James’ civil lawsuit.

Trump is listed among dozens of possible witnesses, setting up a potential courtroom showdown with the judge. The fraud ruling Tuesday threatens to upend his real estate empire and force him to give up prized New York properties such as Trump Tower, a Wall Street office building, golf courses and a suburban estate.  [snip]

Engoron’s fraud ruling resolved the key claim in James’ lawsuit, but six others remain. They include allegations of conspiracy, falsifying business records and insurance fraud. The judge will also decide on James’ request for $250 million in penalties...

The Malignant Loser's loser legal team will attempt engage in the type of futile delaying maneuvers that have become the standard for this career con man.  The latest one has failed, but they'll keep trying and, we trust, failing.

The basic finding has already been made:  the Malignant Loser "committed years of fraud."
