Donald Trump lawyers are active this week and they've just made a big move against Judge Engoron and Letitia James. Trump's lawyers have officially filed notice that they will appeal the $464 million civil fraud ruling against Trump and his company. This is likely to engage both Engoron and James, two people Donald Trump may suggest are part of the witch-hunt trying to thwart his campaign to be the Republican nominee for president in the 2024 election. NBC News further reported:
Trump's attorneys said in a filing that they want an appeals court to determine whether Judge Arthur Engoron “committed errors of law and/or fact, and whether he abused his discretion and/or acted in excess of his jurisdiction” when he handed down the massive judgment against Trump and his company earlier this month.
The $464 million figure includes the prejudgment interest that accrued on Engoron's more than $350 million award against Trump and the Trump Organization.
The order also bars Trump from running any New York businesses for three years.
