Judge Arthur Engoron has rejected a bid from former President Donald Trump's legal team to delay payment of the roughly $355 million in fines and $100 million in interest stemming from New York Democratic Attorney General Letitia James's civil fraud case.
"You have failed to explain, much less justify, any basis for a stay... I am confident that the Appellate Division will protect your appellate rights," Engoron wrote to Trump attorney Clifford Robert in an email CBS obtained.
Trump on Wednesday asked Engoron for a 30-day extension to pay the sum, asserting that "[g]iven that the court-appointed monitor continues to be in place, there is no prejudice to the Attorney General in briefly staying enforcement to allow for an orderly post-Judgment process, particularly given the magnitude of Judgment."

I predate you on FR.
You were a mouse back in 1997-1999, but still showed a little of the fauxconservative yellow stripe.

Probably bigger then than now. Less discretion in my youth.

You were - a careful mouse, with lots of "disclaimers" to keep you under the radar.

I find it hard to see me bashing Snow. I honestly liked him. While conservative, he was often a honest broker. When conservatives were mucking it up, he often called them out or made them explain themselves. A lot of people here weren’t fans. Maybe he missed a chance to swing and hit in one of those stupid moments. He of course changed once he joined the Bush White House as his job was to deflect rather than be forthright. And in general, attitudes here changed too because he was more dedicated to running shade for the WH. I was disappointed his online legacy here was scrubbed as he joined the WH. I don’t recall anything that would have hurt him other than his new job may have had him sypporting positions he hadn’t supported before. His cancer diagnosis hit hard. I seem to remember we had some discussions and he was more than gracious. Not a flamer like many in here. Too good of a guy and way too young. Again, way too good of a guy and way too young.

The law(s) you are referring to have never ever been used this way. You are a joke. A supporter of political persecution.

I find it hard to see me bashing Snow And yet you did.
Why does that surprise you - you ALWAYS have to diss effective conservatives - but NEVER have time to attack piles of reeking dogsquat like Letitia James, Fani Willis, Alvin Bragg or Kathy Hochul.

“Kinda hard to post a bond when you are enjoined from doing business with any bank the have New York state affiliations. There aren't many banks without NY affiliations that are well capitalized enough to finance the bond.” BTTT, VTenigma! Wow, we have two Freepers, Thegagline and Joesbucks, who support Soviet/CCP style political persecution. It's embarrassing. I am ashamed of them.

I ascribe it more to ignorance than willful arrogance.

Thanks everyone, for the insightful responses( and some of the stupid ones) but let me try again. Could the governor put a stop to this by granting a pardon or a stay of execution or something.
I’m asking about the legality only, is it possible?
I know idiot Hochul is probably gleeful about this happening to trump, (duh...) but if the truckers strike and other businessmen strike really start to cripple ny city, could there be a legal effort she could pursue (probably in a panic) to stop it?

Yes I’m pretty sure he does, but the state can play around with it as long as they want.
But my bigger question is could this judge be thrown off the bench and disbarred for such a clearly idiotic kangaroo court?

At that time, many didn’t see Snow as an effective conservative as he didn’t systematically shut down liberals on Fox News Sunday and would sometimes grill conservatives. Without context of the Edsel quote I don’t remember it.
Now please, my bathtub is leaking. It’s located at the frontal lobe.
