He wants it but I don't think it's gonna hand the election to him. live love laugh Apr 2024 #52

Concur. He can't even get a few dozen die hards to the courthouse. Pity his SS team that has to babysit him in jail. dutch777 Apr 2024 #53

The idea by Judge Cordell explained later in this thread senseandsensibility Apr 2024 #54

My fantasy is that Merchan is going to jail him but had to check with the SS first. Irish_Dem Apr 2024 #4

I'm pretty sure it will begin with a fine. bluestarone Apr 2024 #9

No, 6 months of appeal and negotiating the fine. Irish_Dem Apr 2024 #15

Being unhinged doesn't change the fact that he'll have to pay any fine even if he appeals it. onenote Apr 2024 #37

But it took him a long time to pay the bond for the appeal in the fraud case. Irish_Dem Apr 2024 #38

Assuming 26 days is a long delay, its not relevant to his obligation to pay a contempt fine. onenote Apr 2024 #56
