New York Appeals Court Rejects Trump’s Bid to Lift Judge Merchan’s Gag Order
Liberty Daily ^ | 8/1/24 | Katelynn Richardson,

Posted on 08/01/2024 10:25:15 AM PDT by CFW

A New York appeals court rejected on Thursday former President Donald Trump’s effort to lift the remainder of his gag order.

Trump sought to have the order lifted after he was convicted in May on 34 counts for falsifying business records. Judge Juan Merchan partially lifted the order in June but left in place key restrictions, including one that prevents Trump from criticizing prosecutors in Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office.

The court agreed that the end of the trial did not constitute “a change in circumstances” that warranted terminating the order, noting that the “fair administration of justice necessarily includes sentencing.”

“Contrary to petitioner’s contentions, the People’s evidentiary submissions in opposition to his motion in Supreme Court demonstrate that threats received by District Attorney staff after the jury verdict continued to pose a significant and imminent threat,” the court held.

I believe the gag order will eventually be overturned. However, it will be long after the election is over and done with. There is a chance, but only a small one, that they would reverse the NY Court prior to November.

Has to get into an appeals court outside of the state of NY.

Yes, it should be overturned, but as planned, the remedy won’t happen until after the election.

Doesn’t really matter too much as the sham prosecution did more good for President Trump than bad.

PLEASE start saying that Kamala is NOT black. Her Father is Jamaican and her Mother is Indian. Her family were SLAVE OWNERS.

Dems want to get rid of school names and statues from our founding fathers that were slave owners and now blacks want to vote for a NON BLACK WOMAN (dems cannot even define a woman. Maybe kamala is a fat pig) whose family OWNED SLAVES.

To be expected, but this doesn’t seem relevant now. Trump does not need to talk more about this case, everyone that cares knows the legal persecution that is going on. The focus now, like at his and Vance’s events are the issues, especially in comparison to Harris. They don’t have enough time to cover everything!

The trial is long over — what conceivable justification would there still be to maintain a PRIOR restraint order? This is pure madness.

Is anyone surprised? One look at this courts group photo will tell you Trump has 0 chance of relief there. Brazen election interference but expected.

“...fair administration of justice...”

What a stinking joke. These filthy corrupt judges are going to get what’s coming to them, deservedly so. In a few months time, president Trump will have many options to deal with these scumbag pukes. The entire state of New York is going to pay the price. /spit

They couldn’t silence him with a bullet, thus the gag order.

Probably, they’ve been out of the news for a while. I’m sure among the lingering cases, something will pop up, likely in October, closer to the election.
