NEW: Federal judge in NY finds that Donald Trump, Donald Trump Jr., Eric Trump, Allen Weisselberg, the Trump Organization Inc., & other Trump-related business entities have “persistently” committed fraud and has ordered their certificates CANCELED. documentcloud.org/documents/2399…
Judge further orders that an independent receiver is to be appointed to oversee the dissolution of the canceled LLCs. Image
Here is Judge Engoron’s lowering of the boom: Image
And the judge also sanctioned several lawyers, incl. Chris Kise and Michael Madaio (the law partner of Alina Hanna), $7,500 each for their frivolous filings and arguments: Image
But wait! There’s more:

There are remaining counts that need to be tried and other issues to be resolved including “the amount of disgorgement of profits to which OAG is entitled”… Image
*Habba (but whatever)
*Correction: NY STATE court judge, not a federal judge. Sorry for the typo in my haste.

JUST IN: Judge Tanya Chutkan DENIES Trump's Motion to Recuse, finding that recusal is "not warranted."

ecf.dcd.uscourts.gov/cgi-bin/show_p…
"By contrast, this court has from the beginning repeated its commitment 'to ensure the orderly administration of justice in this case as [in] any other case.' That commitment echoes the court’s solemn oath to 'administer justice without respect to persons,' to 'do equal right...
to the poor and to the rich,' and to 'faithfully and impartially discharge and perform all the duties . . . under the Constitution and laws of the United States.'

Last motion: Mtn to Speak with Grand Jurors

Chesebro lawyer: I have serious questions based on publicly available information that this grand jury as well as the special purpose one was "independent."
Court: Grand jurors have been through a lot so far. You question if they've acted independently but the idea that it should be just explored without any basis, I am not sure about that.
Defense: The grand jury must be independent. I would argue that if the State presented their case in one day, which based on publicly available info seems to be the case, my eyebrows would be raised.

Second Motion: Defense wants special grand jury transcripts, recordings and reports.

State: Defense should not have access to this information (except for Robert Cheeley's transcript b/c he was charged with perjury in Count 41).
Defense: We need this info b/c we have a right under the discovery statute for the State to provide all of their case to us before trial. We need to be able to see if there is anything exculpatory, etc.
Court: You aren't getting everything, though; just the info for the witnesses that they call for their case.

What code are you citing to that allows you to get everything?

JUST IN: Sidney Powell files a motion to sever her case from the other 18 co-defendants claiming that she has “no substantive connection with any other defendants regarding the charges in the Indictment.”

documentcloud.org/documents/2393…
Her motion is so worth the read bc it’s so absurd: she claims she’s only being charged with RICO because “she attended a press conference exercising her First Amendment right to speak on a matter of great public interest…”
She is very keen to disassociate herself from the other defendants and claims “she had no contact with most of her purported conspirators, and rarely agreed with those she knew or spoke with.”

JUST IN: An interesting order was just entered by Judge Jones regarding Mark Meadows’ attempt to remove his case to federal court. Image
Judge Jones wants more legal briefing from each side regarding whether it only takes one act by Meadows properly made under color of his federal office to justify removal.
During the hearing yesterday, Jones expressed some visible skepticism that Meadows had no bounds to his role as Chief of Staff. But this Order suggests he wants to understand whether federal removal has to be an “all or nothing” proposition in the context of a RICO charge.
