New York: Trump's Criminal, Civil Cases Should Not Be Dismissed

The New York attorney general and the Manhattan district attorney both said Tuesday they will not dismiss their historic cases against Donald Trump now that he's been reelected president.

The NY Attorney General has REJECTED Trump's bid to dismiss his $500M civil fraud judgment post-election. The AG stated that Trump's presidency doesn't shield him from civil litigation over non-official conduct, per the Constitution and multiple court precedents.

"President-elect immunity does not exist," the DA's office wrote, adding that even when Trump is president, dismissing the conviction and the indictment would be an "extreme remedy" that is unwarranted.

And the New York attorney general's office wrote in a letter to Trump's attorneys Tuesday that Trump's appeal of his $454 million civil fraud judgment poses no burden to his future presidency.

Trump was already seeking to dismiss both the felony hush money conviction and the civil fraud judgment before the November election, but now that he's returning to the White House, his lawyers are arguing the civil and criminal verdicts should both be dropped."

Gee-Time magazine just made him "Man of the Year", that means he can't be all that bad, cad he? Yeah, right. I canceled my subscription to that rag when they did the same for the Ayatollah back around 1980 and tried to avoid reading it ever since.
