Trump's Mistrial Demand Suffers From 'Total Lack Of Merit,' New York AG Says

Huff Post  

LOADING ERROR LOADING Former President Donald Trump’s demand for a mistrial in his New York civil fraud trial suffers from a “total lack of merit,” the New York Attorney General’s office says. Assistant Attorney General Kevin Wallace slipped the dig into a letter to Judge Arthur Engoron Thursday, clarifying the timeline for the state’s formal response to the “spurious allegations” in Trump’s mistrial motion. Trump’s attorneys filed for a mistrial Wednesday, arguing Engoron and his law clerk have shown a “tangible and overwhelming” bias against the 2024 Republican presidential front-runner. This second part of the trial will determine Trump’s penalty for doing so, including his ability to continue operating a business in New York and up to a $250 million penalty.
