Updated Jan 9, 2024 The motion said the checks sent to Wade from Fulton County and his subsequent purchase of vacations for Willis could amount to honest services fraud, a federal crime in which a vendor gives kickbacks to an employer. It is also possible this could be prosecuted under the federal racketeering statute, the motion said ... Willis and Wade, the motion contends, “have been engaged in an improper, clandestine personal relationship during the pendency of this case, which has resulted in the special prosecutor, and, in turn, the district attorney, profiting significantly from this prosecution at the expense of the taxpayers.” https://www.ajc.com/politics/breaking-filing-alleges-improper-relationship-between-fulton-da-top-trump-prosecutor

The defendant filed a motion. He is not the plaintiff. and I would say the county commissioner is more a risk to the case than any of the defendants.

Agreed. Nothing so far seems that it would affect the overall case. This stuff as in the NY Times today, might.

Fani Willis ally pushes for election interference case prosecutor to step aside BY FILIP TIMOTIJA - 01/20/24 9:57 PM ET Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis’s (D) ally, who served as special counsel in the first impeachment of former President Trump, said that it would be a “wise thing” for prosecutor Nathan Wade to step aside in the Georgia election interference case considering the allegations that Willis hired him while they had a romantic affair. Norm Eisen, who was House of Representatives special counsel during Trump’s impeachment, said that the Georgia law does not require Wade to remove himself from the case, but that it would be a wise thing to consider. https://thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/4420019-fani-willis-ally-pushes-election-interference-case-prosecutor-step-aside/

As regards Trump v Colorado in the 14th Amendment Supreme Court case: The case is set for oral argument on Thursday, February 8, 2024

Yes. I realize. But I am not.

The appeal is a written document.

Trump is a jerk. But he insists he never met her and never raped her.

I have misrepresented nothing. The plaintiff said she cannot give a date that she was raped by Trump. The jury verdict is in. An appeal can deal with a judge's decisions as to which evidence was allowed or disallowed for a jury to come to its decision. Carroll's response to the appeal is due some time March.

Yes. Tough to prove the negative.

The jury verdict is under appeal. I do not support Donald J. Trump. I support the notion that no one -- whether in a criminal or civil case -- should have to deal with: She: You raped me. He: When did I rape you? She: I don't know. https://www.aclu.org/wp-content/uploads/legal-documents/4156_ri_1978.pdf

Exactly, another poster said he experienced that didn't happen. Conveniently ignored by all claiming 'bank will not release funds'. I will revise my prior posts: When an expat who has a 'in his name only' 800,000 baht account for immigration purposes in Thailand, a wife or other person should drain the account before the bank (if ever) finds out and freezes the account. NB I do not have any bank account in Thailand including the one with 65K+ per month deposit where the balance does not get close to zero by the end off the month. So nothing to drain upon my eventual demise.

Yes I realize you were just giving the cliché response but still, if a large amount, has to be considered. And yes it is a large Thai insurer.

Thanks. I don't have the funds.That's why it works at least for me.

So always, still, be worth a lot more alive than dead. But as with the comment I quoted, it is a way to get some money into the wife's hands promptly and then wait for things to clear in my home country where, again, things are set up in no-probate accounts.

I think Ms. Habba is there because she reminds her client, Mr. Trump, of his mentor, Roy Cohn.

Note that in Thailand a life insurance policy is payable upon death with no probate required.

Sure but the operative question to some on here is: How will the bank (ever) find out?

To close the account after making any legal distributions I'm presuming the 800k account is for immigration purposes which cannot be a joint account.

The bank will at some point receive an official time of death.

So the bank will see that you made a large withdrawal from your account after you are dead. Nice.

Nice sunglasses

From the script for Casablanca (1942) Humphrey Bogart as Rick Blaine Rick: I'm not fighting for anything anymore except myself. I'm the only cause I'm interested in.

They are not the same document: One is the petition by Trump to overturn Colorado ruling DONALD J. TRUMP, PETITIONER On Petition for a Writ of Certiorari to the Supreme Court of Colorado The question presented is: Did the Colorado Supreme Court err in ordering President Trump excluded from the 2024 presidential primary ballot? and the other ANDERSON RESPONDENTS’ BRIEF IN RESPONSE TO PETITIONER DONALD J. TRUMP’S PETITION from where those 7 questions above were sourced.

But apparently not Ms. Carroll herself May 11, 2023: Ms. Carroll, in the interview, blamed herself for their decision to find Mr. Trump liable for sexually abusing her but not for rape. “I didn’t make myself clear when I was testifying,” Ms. Carroll said. Under New York law, according to Ms. Carroll’s lawyer, Ms. Kaplan, penetration by the penis must occur for there to be a rape. Ms. Carroll had testified that after Mr. Trump led her into the Bergdorf’s lingerie department and into a dressing room, he shoved her against a wall and inserted his fingers and then his penis into her vagina. “I couldn’t see anything that was happening,” Ms. Carroll had told the jury. “But I could certainly feel it. I could certainly feel that pain in the finger jamming up.” In the interview Thursday, Ms. Carroll noted that she had twice been married, and she said, “I know what a penis feels like, and he did insert his penis.” https://www.nytimes.com/2023/05/11/nyregion/e-jean-carroll-trump-defamation.html
