Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s team on Tuesday filed a memorandum in support of their motion for contempt against fat former President Trump for repeated violations of the terms of his gag order in the days and weeks before his 2016 election interference/hush money trial began.

“Upon a finding of criminal contempt, the Judiciary Law authorizes a court to impose a fine not exceeding $1,000 or to sentence the contemnor to no more than 30 days’ jail ‘or both, in the discretion of the court.’ Here, this Court should impose the maximum $1,000 fine for each of defendant’s three violations of the April 1 order. As this Court has already found, defendant’s inflammatory attacks ‘undoubtedly interfere with the fair administration of justice and constitute a direct attack on the Rule of Law itself’ Such grave harm warrants imposition of the maximum fine permitted under the law. This Court should also order defendant to remove the posts attacking Cohen and Daniels. Justice Engoron imposed such relief in the civil-enforcement proceeding. Removing these violative posts would also provide some indication that defendant is willing to ‘desist from further offensive conduct’ in a way that could ward off further findings of contempt.”

“And removal would also help to alleviate the intimidation and alarm intended to be inflicted by defendant’s posts on both Cohen and Daniels, as well as on other potential witnesses and prospective jurors. In addition, this Court should again admonish defendant to comply with his obligations under the order. And finally, this Court should warn defendant that future violations of the Court’s restrictions on his extrajudicial statements can be punished not only with additional fines, but also with a term of incarceration of up to thirty days,” Bragg’s team wrote.

Merchan scheduled something of a trial-within-a-trial for next Tuesday morning to determine whether fatass violated the terms of the gag order. He’ll probably fuck up again before then.
