The turd roller “judge” fags are starting to control our elections for us. They need THEIR asses locked up.
The plot sickens...
The Constitution guarantees every citizen the right to a speedy trial. If Trump is ready to defend his case he should petition the New York Supreme Court requesting a trial in 30 days. If denied by the NY Supreme Court he should petition the US Supreme Court.
“Judge Juan Merchan told him to cancel all commitments during the trial...”
Screw that. Trump should just keep campaigning and see if Judge Juan wants to issue an arrest warrant for the leading Presidential candidate.
The leftists, fascists, socialists, communists own the courts.
Don’t do the crime if you don’t have the time.
Lawfare is how the left conducts warfare. as we have all seen recently, the progressive leftists already have their judges and prosecuters in place to dispose of anyone who tries to stop them. You KNOW that after Trump is disposed of...WE are next. Elections have consequences and then come the consequences of elections. Enjoy.
Deep State doing everything they can to stop the Trump Train.
Some might call this “election interference.”
Others might call it “deprivation of rights under color of law,” punishable by fines and prison time.
Completely unjust. Entirely predictable.
To all the Trump-or-Die FReepers, remind me again why we don’t want to consider DeSantis?
We need an Electable Conservative on the ballot.
Trump has all the right enemies, DeSantis has all the wrong friends.
More election interference, more yawning from Americans
Outrageous!
SPEEDY TRIAL ACT OF 1974 - DEFINING THE SIXTH AMENDMENT RIGHT
Annotation
THE SPEEDY TRIAL ACT OF 1974 MANDATES THAT, BY 1980, THE PERIOD OF DELAY IN ALL FEDERAL AND DISTRICT COURTS SHALL NOT EXCEED 100 DAYS, SUBJECT TO A VARIETY OF EXCLUDABLE PERIODS OF DELAY.
Abstract
THE TIME LIMITS SET IN THE ACT WILL BE ENFORCED BY MANDATORY DISMISSAL OF CRIMINAL CHARGES, ON THE DEFENDANT'S MOTION, WHEN THE TIME LIMITS ARE EXCEEDED. THE ACT IMPOSES TIME LIMITS FOR THREE SEPARATE INTERVALS:
(1) ANY INFORMATION OR INDICTMENT MUST BE FILED WITHIN 30 DAYS OF ARREST OR SERVICE OF THE SUMMONS IN CONNECTION WITH AN OFFENSE;
(2) ARRAIGNMENT OF THE ACCUSED MUST BE HELD WITHIN 10 DAYS OF THE FILING DATE OF INFORMATION/INDICTMENT OR OF THE DATE THE ACCUSED IS ORDERED HELD TO ANSWER AND APPEARS BEFORE A JUDICIAL OFFICER IN THE COURT IN WHICH THE CHARGE IS PENDING, WHICHEVER OCCURS LATER; AND
(3) WHERE A PLEA OF NOT GUILTY IS ENTERED, TRIAL MUST BEGIN WITHIN 60 DAYS FROM DATE OF ARRAIGNMENT.
THE MANDATED TIME LIMITS ARE INTENDED TO DEFINE AND IMPLEMENT THE SIXTH AMENDMENT RIGHT TO A SPEEDY TRIAL AND TO ENHANCE THE DETERRENT VALUE OF PUNISHMENT BY MAKING THE ADMINISTRATION OF JUSTICE EFFICIENT AND SWIFT. FURTHER, REDUCTION IN DELAY WOULD ALSO REDUCE THE TIME AND OPPORTUNITY AVAILABLE TO PERSONS RELEASED PENDING TRIAL TO COMMIT OTHER OFFENSES. THE TIME LIMITS IMPOSED ARE SUBJECT TO NUMEROUS EXCLUDABLE DELAYS, AND THE ACT SPECIFICALLY STATES THAT EXCLUDABLE DELAYS LISTED ARE NOT EXHAUSTIVE.
ALTHOUGH THE ACT REQUIRES DISMISSAL OF CHARGES AGAINST THE ACCUSED SHOULD THE TIME LIMITS BE EXCEEDED, THE ACT DOES NOT REQUIRE THAT DISMISSAL ACT AS A BAR TO FUTURE PROSECUTION. CASE LAW, PARTICULARLY THE U.S. SUPREME COURT ANALYSIS OF THE RIGHT TO SPEEDY TRIAL IN THE BARKER VERSUS WINGO CASE, AND STATUTORY PROVISIONS BEARING ON COURT DELAYS AND THE RIGHT TO SPEEDY TRIAL ARE REVIEWED.
MAJOR DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE ACT AND COURT INTERPRETATIONS INCLUDE THE SETTING OF SPECIFIC TIME LIMITS FOR UNIFORM APPLICATION, THE EXCLUSION OF COURT CONGESTION AS A GROUNDS FOR EXCLUDABLE DELAY, A MORE STRINGENT CONTINUANCE POLICY, AND THE REMOVAL OF THE DEFENDANT'S BURDEN OF PROVING PREJUDICIAL DELAY (AS WAS REQUIRED BY THE SUPREME COURT TEST IN BARKER).
MOREOVER, STATUTORY TIME LIMITS ARE NOT DEPENDENT ON THE DEFENDANT'S DEMAND AND JUDICIAL DISCRETION IN DISMISSING THE CHARGES WITH OR WITHOUT PREJUDICE. EXTENSIVE NOTES ARE PROVIDED.
How can this “case” even be legal since it doesn’t identify an underlying crime? I guess the facts and laws don’t really matter anymore. We have become just another 3rd World banana republic.
Funny all the pics on the site and not one shows Trump “shaking his fist”...
Where is the picture of furious Trump glaring and shaking his fists? The article has about 15 pictures of him but none match the headline.
File a federal lawsuit against the judge and the whole lot - the DA, etc.
These charges are absolutely garbage and should have been dismissed on a summary judgment. Not keeping proper “business records” on a payment to an alleged mistress not to sell her story to others results in a criminal prosecution? Absolute nonsense.
How about Feds coming in on national tv to force handcuffs onto Trump during his biggest campaign speech in the primaries? 👮♂️🚔
And pulling him out of the convention by his arms to a police van?
Banana republic life is so cruel.
In a way, this trial is coming at a great time. It will be the middle of primary season. Given that Trump’s poll numbers go up every time another attempt at persecuting him, it will be great for his campaign.
