She expects Trump's lawyers to delay the process and try to "judge shop" someone who will support him.
She is trying to get the case on an expedited docket.
She thinks jurisdiction can be kept in Manhattan.
A settlement is a possibility.
She agreed with me that a settlement could not include confidentiality of terms.
She does not think Bragg was corrupt of compromise in not bringing criminal charges; he was concerned that the case was largely circumstantial.

Him and Gaetz are both ABOVE THE LAW.

(10,599 posts)I've seen Nothing to show that they aren't. They continue to get away with all their crimes, hence, Above The Law.
I guess I'm growing tired of every time they commit a criminal act, people fall all over themselves to say how they're going to jail. I want to bring people down to earth, so they're not disappointed when the reality sets in, that they have yet to be held accountable, and I doubt they ever will be.

(10,599 posts)For now though, clearly, people who commit crimes on the regular, like these Pieces Of Excrement, and are never even charged, are Above The Law. This is the very definition of "Above The Law."
And they know it very well.
