Trump Trials General Part 17: Trump Won't Be Around for Long

Current Events

Updates:
  • The SCOTUS oral arguments for Trump's presidential immunity appeal happened on Thursday April 25th. We're now waiting for SCOTUS to make a ruling on it, but it could take until June 25th.
  • Trump is currently on trial in New York for the criminal hush money / election interference case. The trial happens on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday and is expected to go for maybe another 5 to 6 weeks.
  • Trump has violated the judge's gag order about 12 times so far. They had a hearing on Tuesday April 23rd to address the 1st 10 or so violations. The judge has scheduled another hearing for Thursday May 2nd to address the remaining 2. The 2nd hearing was originally on Wednesday May 1st, but it got moved. Still waiting on Judge Merchan to make a ruling about the first 10 gag order violations. NY law says it's either a max $1000 fine per violation or jail time. The prosecution asked for fines for the 1st 10, but not sure how the judge will rule.
  • Trump and the NY AG have worked out a deal to accept the $175 million bond fronted by Knight Specialty Insurance in the NY civil fraud trial. We're now waiting on the appeals court to make a ruling.
  • No important events in the Georgia RICO trial or the classified documents case, I don't think.
  • Trump's appeal in the second E. Jean Carroll trial was denied.
