Trump's Fraud-Trial Antics Backfire as Judge Denies Instant Win in NY Civil Fraud Case

Lawyers for the New York attorney general's office condemn the "antics" of Donald Trump's legal team in a filing, criticizing their repeated requests for a "directed verdict" in the civil fraud trial. The judge, who has presided over the case for three years, denied the latest request and agreed with the attorney general's frustration. The filing sarcastically refers to Trump's paid witnesses as the "most ineffective team of experts that Defendants' money can buy." The trial aims to determine if Trump's proven fraud rises to the level of criminality, with closing arguments and a verdict expected in January.
