Happy thread ... "Trump is 100% responsible for "the professional fees and expenses."

[Botany]

Trump is 100% responsible for "the professional fees and expenses of the Special Master and any
professionals, support staff, and expert consultants engaged at the Special Master's request,"
Cannon ruled.

I think Judge Dearie salary is already being paid but Trump is on the hook for everything else.

1. He won't pay.

Another lawsuit waiting to happen.

2. Judge Deary is retired- DFT will have to pay his "fees", whatever they may be.

Bet the judge gets stiffed.

3. he isn't retired, at least not fully....

He is what is referred to as a "Senior Judge", who can work a much reduced workload if he chooses. But he is still a sitting judge.

But that doesn't mean tfg gets him for free. There may be court charges that cover his time, office space, etc.

It won't be cheap, regardless of Deerie's status.

6. Dearie hired an assistant

at $500 an hour. Something will be said about that.

4. Another line item for upcoming bankruptcy filing... nt

5. If Trump doesn't pay, the court will look to his attorneys to pay

The bills will be sent to the attorneys, not Trump directly.
