Court Officially Confirms Details for First Hearing in Trump Criminal Case
Epoch Times ^ | 4/1/23 | By Gary Bai and Zachary Stieber

Posted on 04/01/2023 7:03:30 AM PDT by norwaypinesavage

Former President Donald Trump’s first hearing will take place on April 4, a court spokesperson confirmed on Friday. Trump is set to appear at 2:15 p.m. on Tuesday before New York Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan, the spokesperson told The Epoch Times via email.

Merchan is the judge who oversaw the case of Allen Weisselberg, the former chief financial officer of the Trump Organization.

It seems odd to me that a NY Supreme Court judge, who also presided over another Trump case, would also be hearing this case.

It is not a coincidence, it’s just part of the attempt to railroad Trump.

What Trump needs to worry about more than the charges (which are complete BS) is the Judge throwing him in jail for contempt.

The Supreme Court of the State of New York includes 62 courts—one supreme court for each county. These courts are the highest trial courts in New York State, and are of general jurisdiction. The New York Supreme Courts are not New York’s courts of last resort. The Court of Appeals is the highest court in New York.

The whole thing is just a set up. All opposition to the PARTY must be crushed,

When it comes to an evil regime, China and Russia got nothing on us.

Remember, after somewhere around thirty million dollars and two years, Mueller couldn’t prove DJT violated ANY laws.

But, then again, he couldn’t prove DJT DIDN’T violate any laws either. So, technically, since Mueller couldn’t prove that DJT was innocent, then DJT must be guilty . . .

Actually it isn’t odd, it’s the way our corrupt law system operates.

A perfect example is the Nixon “take down” called Watergate. Every defendant was initially run through the courtrooms of two judges.(Sirica & Gesell)
