Huge turn out in UN Press Briefing Room for outgoing USG @Alison_Smale's spin of Utah conference. Inner City Press, banned by Smale et al for 415 days, has asked in writing about the costs innercitypress.com/undgc1smalelas…
@alison_smale @FUNCA_info @silas_atefor @MatthewLeeICP @AdamShawNY Priorities: UNSG @AntonioGuterres' @UN_Spokesperson @StephDujarric refuses to answer questions about UN child rapes by #Cameroon in DRC - but he has installed a mat for himself to stand on at the podium. #LazySpox
@alison_smale @FUNCA_info @silas_atefor @MatthewLeeICP @AdamShawNY @antonioguterres @UN_Spokesperson @StephDujarric UN corruption: now @UN_Spokesperson @StephDujarric emphasizes that when @UschiMuller spoke about corruption she was not referring to any country or agency, says she knows nothing about corruption. But doesn't she? #Cameroon #GoldenStatue
@alison_smale @FUNCA_info @silas_atefor @MatthewLeeICP @AdamShawNY Now after Salt Lake City's mayor phones it in, @Alison_Smale says in a monotone "That fills us with excitement." Global Communicator who wouldn't or couldn't communicate with Press.

OK - now at presentment in USA v. Zhan Petrosyants, good friend of ex-Mayor Eric Adams, last seen dodging a GEICO subpoena, now arrested for auto insurance fraud. His retained lawyer has been here in the SDNY Mag court waiting for the pre-trial services report 1/x Image
Waiting here for past hour with Petrosyants defense lawyer schmoozing, saying he'll need a New Jersey lawyer (presumably to secure the bond), commenting on a case wheeled out from grand jury - finally now pre-trial services report arrives
Woman who's been waiting here in the courtroom is now told to go to 26 Federal Plaza and "pick up his luggage" - hmm. She will not be bringing the luggage back to the courthouse, but is told (by lawyer) to "call an Uber for your husband." Waiting for judge

OK - now US v Maduro, hearing on whether Venezuela can pay his lawyer Barry Pollock. Inner City Press is covering the case and will live tweet, thread below matthewrussellleeicp.substack.com/p/extra-maduro…Image
11:42 am
All rise!
Barry Pollack: Your Honor, in Luis versus US the Supreme Court said that defendants have a right to counsel of choice, and to use untainted funds. Also, funds of a third party. Here, the Government has not contested these 2's property interest
Judge Hellerstein: The point in Luis was UNtainted funds. The similarity here is that... the sanctions are equivalent to the taint. Sanctions on Venezuela from paying out. That's a difference, isn't it?
Pollack: That is not outcome determinative under Luis

OK - now in Taibbi v. Higgins, oral argument on motion to dismiss. Defense lawyer Elizabeth McNamara: They must show the defendants knew or should have known what they reported was false. They can't. Inner City Press, banned from UN, will live tweet, thread below Image
McNamara: This comes down to a political fight.
Judge Daniels: The definition of "bought" is that someone has paid someone for something. And owned means not making independent judgments but based on the compensation they receive
McNamara: That's one definition
Judge Daniels: It's right on the cover. In what way was he bought?
McNamara: He highlighted 1st the Hunter Biden situation. Bought means being a sell-out, classic opinion. The flaw in their case is this is an implication of the cover. There's no implication count

OK - Live Nation trial Day 4 with states, Rapino due on stand, with some exhibits redacted - Inner City Press has asked to unseal & and is covering (Book: amazon.com/dp/B0GRN95HNT March Madness monopoly matthewrussellleeicp.substack.com/p/ticketmonste… ) and will live tweet, thread below Image
All rise!
Judge Subramanian: We'll address later the proposed exclusion of some of Doctor Hill expert opinion, those that remain after the DOJ settlement. Jurors 9 and 12 are excused based on financial hardship - the Court was unable to solve it, they are excused
Judge Subramanian: I need five minutes, I've forgotten my notes on the objections.
States' Kessler: We will finish our evidence and finish our case next Wednesday [!]

OK - Live Nation trial Day 3 with states, after Baker on robbing them blind, before Rapino - Inner City Press is unsealing & covering (Book: amazon.com/dp/B0GRN95HNT March Madness monopoly matthewrussellleeicp.substack.com/p/ticketmonste… ) and will live tweet, thread below Image
[Before jury brought it]
Live Nation's Moskowitz: We do not want the jury to see Mr. Rapino's compensation. It's prejudicial.
States' Kessler: I am entitled to show how important this is to him, personally.
Moskowitz: The amount is not relevant to the bias.
Live Nation's Moskowitz: As long as we black out his compensation, we can live with that.
Judge Subramanian: Mischief managed. Mr. Hernandez?

All rise!
Live Nation's Bob Roux still on the stand.
LN's lawyer: Plaintiffs asked you about your comments about the Red Mountain acquisition - what were you saying about competition 10 years ago in Alabama?
Roux: I'd have to look at it (laughs)
Live Nation's lawyer: How would you characterize Mr. Capshaw's experience?
Roux: Very experienced manager, including for Chris Stapleton.
LN's lawyer: You told Mr. Capshaw you were going to withheld artists from Red Mountain?
Roux: Artists-
