Some relief that Trump's appeal bond was reduced, but it's not enough: Why didn't they reduce that bond requirement to zero?

RE: They should reduce it to -$500,000

Nope. It should be ZERO and the case should be thrown out and Letitia James should be referred to the lawyer’s association for disbarment ( together with Judge Engoron ). That is, if there’s any justice.

RE: If that’s the case, then I guess the documents submitted by Trump and were detgermined over inflated by the court

And what credentials does the court have to determine the valuation of property over and above the real estate bankers who, upon doing their due dilligence, gave Trump the loan?

Why should the valuation of robed judges sitting on a bench take precedence over the FREE MARKET? What makes them experts on real estate valuation?

I thought America is supposed to be a country where capitalism and the free market and property rights are respected. Apparently by your lights, they should not be.

RE: I guess the documents submitted by Trump and were detgermined over inflated by the court didn’t mean anything

Yes, you guess rightly. They don’t mean a thing because the court has no right nor does it have the credentials and training to second guess what the banks and property valuators have determined to be the value of a property for collateral. The court exists only to decide if a crime was committed ( which in this case, there was none ).

I said it should be reduced to NEGATIVE $500,000.

Ok, I apologize for misreading. In this case I’d add an additional premium to your value — multiply it by 10!

This ought to act as a deterrent to any future lawfare for political purposes.
