Looks like Trump's lawyers are out to get him too

[Zincwarrior]

We long ago should have given up trial by Jury - we currently don't have an informed enough citizenry with sufficient critical thinking skills.

I will leave that to another thread, but many have made that argument (and the opposite of course). The vagaries of tax law are...archane and mysterious.

Trump has a history of being screwed over by lawyers.

Or had you not noticed?

Just expecting more of the same because the more things change, the more they stay the same.

Trump never listens to his lawyers or pays them.

 

[surada]

The case was brought under a little known but powerful New York state law, that requires a bench trial with a Judge and not a jury trial.

All the USMB lawyers crowing about President Trump's lawyers missing a deadline - well, dumb as a stump as always.

Nope. Trump had the option of a jury.

What would the jury have done?

Why is this important to you?

Trump made the decision for no jury himself, when his mind was safely in never-never land.

Now the much bigger world outside of his mind is starting to become reality for the first time in his life.

It might be time to start thinking on whether Trump will be able to bear the humiliation. His sociopathic play he puts on for the public won't play well to this judge..

Watch for signs of weird behaviour and a variety of different voice effects, as his way of letting out the rage.

We get to watch both Trump and Biden disintegrate together at the same time!

Trump is the victimiest victimy victim in the history of historical histories, that's for sure.

This, of course, is not true.

A jury trial was properly and timely requested? It would be in the Court's filing docket.

no.

A good defense lawyer a requests/demands a jury trial in the Defendant's Original Answer.

That's false.

 

[Billiejeens]

love the left-wing lunatics who at the same time they are saying -

he's already been convicted, are claiming that some type of incompetence failed to ask for a jury trial, to see if he would be convicted.

 

[Marener]

so. as usual. pure queefery from you scumbag.

no law cited, no reasoning offered.

just repetitive bullshit.

hey, maybe you should be on trumps legal team. and then you will get sanctioned. lol

Billiejeens has no idea. They’re just repeating what Trump’s lawyers told him because they are a cultist who only knows what they’re told.

I have heard nothing from the team representing President Trump or President Trump.
What words did they convey to you?

 

[BlindBoo]

it was not an option.

On July 31, the New York attorney general's office filed paperwork telling the judge it had completed all its pre-trial work and was prepared for a trial. On that form, the lawyers checked a box requesting a "Trial without jury."

Trump's lawyers never filed anything to court arguing otherwise, court records show. They had the opportunity to ask for a jury trial — but didn't.

Under the statute where James brought her lawsuit, it wasn't necessarily guaranteed that Trump would have gotten a jury to decide the case. But his lawyers didn't even ask Engoron to consider it.

Trump isn't getting a jury in his $250 million civil fraud trial because his lawyers failed to ask for one

Former President Donald Trump is getting a three-month bench trial solely decided by a judge he's repeatedly attacked.

Sure. You just relied on your deep seated knowledge of esoteric New York law.

Sure.
