COMMENT: Hello Martin.
Thanks for the “astute lawyer” praise. That was very good, and coming from you, it is extremely significant to me.
The Epoch Instances headline in your “NYC Out of Management” put up calls the greenback a part of the decision in opposition to the Trumps a “penalty.” It has additionally been referred to as a “nice,” however I haven’t but seen it referred to as “damages” in a headline. I believe Hochul, Engoron, and James know that the quantity was primarily based on a harm evaluation and calculation that won’t maintain up. New York Government Regulation § 63(12) clearly reads that the lawyer basic “might apply…for an order…directing restitution and damages…”. [Emphasis mine.]
New York proved math calculations, not precise damages, the place the broken occasion needed to be made entire. Had the statute recited a listing of fines, they’d in all probability be in a extra sound place, however their place now’s what I might name “too dicey for consolation.” I might seize nothing on this state of affairs as a result of there are too many circumstances of improper seizures to fret about. The verdicts in opposition to those that seize property in error or improperly or rapidly in a flawed or tainted case are many occasions bigger than the quantity of the cash judgment used to grab and promote the property of the defendant.
Moreover, if New York has somebody operating the Trump companies, and may she or he destroy or harm the companies, the state might be liable for a lot of, many occasions the quantity of the decision/judgment in opposition to the Trump household. Trump may wind up seizing the state capitol, the governor’s residence, and so on., plus having his property returned to him. I’ve seen this occur. As soon as, the State of Louisiana overreached, and as soon as, the U.S. authorities was a litigant in opposition to a billionaire oil man, banker, and pal who couldn’t get the IRS to return his multi-million greenback overpayment of taxes. He lastly had sufficient, and he seized the Hale Boggs Federal Courtroom Constructing. He obtained his cash a day later.
Maybe by dancing round precisely what authorized precept the quantity of the cash verdict/judgment is predicated on (i.e., damages, fines, penalties [i.e., a payment imposed as punishment], no matter), the Hochul, Engoron, James enterprise has walked right into a lure. The Eighth Modification prohibits extreme fines. In the event that they keep the quantity is completely primarily based on the precept of damages, how can they present a diminution of the state being “entire” (or “wholeness” if you’ll) owing to Trump’s actions with third events. In the event that they keep the quantity of the decision/judgment is predicated on a correctly enacted and printed nice or penalty, then they have to face the Eighth Modification.
For my part, Hochul, Engoron, and James are whistling previous the graveyard. They’ve put their careers on the road, and the cube are tumbling.
Finest regards, and thanks once more.

REPLY: That is so political it smells, and simply because this Choose, who will not be certified to evaluate a turtle race, merely decrees, they suppose they’re God, and everybody should bow right down to them and kiss their ring. It’s so uncommon to discover a first rate choose in New York. Choose Lawrence McKenna noticed what they have been doing and tried to guard me. The federal government went to the Chief Choose to take away him after which sealed the document.
The DA belongs in jail with the governor and this disgusting choose. This DA is bragging that she’s going to now seize Trump Tower. When the pc projected that the 2024 election can be intermixed with critical civil unrest and that neither facet would ever settle for the end result, as we draw nearer and nearer to this date with future, it’s wanting very, very darkish certainly.
The pc is projecting a panic cycle in September, rising volatility in October, and October can be a vital turning level heading into the 2024 election. We must always now not have the motto – Gold Bless America – it ought to be modified to – God Save America. These LEFTIST are destroying the very basis of regulation; with out that, civilization can now not exist. That’s the testimony of historical past – not my opinion.
NEW YORK IS DOOMED
Bond traders have piled into New York Metropolis’s tax-exempt bonds, lured by their comparatively excessive yields. Nevertheless, with a $7 billion funds deficit spiraling prices of sheltering asylum seekers and different migrants which have sought refuge in New York on high of this collapse within the rule of regulation, NYC is a promote – not a purchase. Wall Road income are declining, and with them, there are looming job cuts at main funding banks. Many are migrating to Florida, which places strain on metropolis tax income. New York’s fiscal outlook is a catastrophe. That implies the town’s basic obligation bonds aren’t significantly engaging at present valuations – they’re a promote.
