(NEW YORK) — Former President Donald Trump filed a motion Thursday to try to get the judge who oversaw his civil fraud trial in New York kicked off the case. According to Bailey, their discussion only concerned Engoron’s September 2023 summary judgment order in which the judge determined Trump committed fraud. “I did not think that speaking to Judge Engoron about my own personal views of his already published decision was wrong in any way,” Bailey said. Trump is already appealing the outcome of the civil fraud case to an intermediate appellate court, with the appeal due to be filed next month. It is clear that Judge Engoron should recuse himself immediately,” Habba said.
