After all the clamor and even news reporting of the cousin on the jury who reported to her cousin that the verdict would be "guilty"...BEFORE the verdict was handed down...
Any developments? Crazy quiet...Even Hannity reported this on Friday night.
I think Merchan did this, only so that he & the rest of the Progressive Elite can point to this one action and say, “See? See? He was even-handed / unbiased / not showing favoritism to one side or the other”.
That is my understanding as well. I believe that the first appeal is “unwanted”. Meaning that the NY State Supreme court (first line appeal) does not want to rule on this. It is a “hot potato” and they also know that the Judge is in a state of reversible error.
So to AVOID having to rule, they are giving Judge Marchan an easy out.
Just my .02
