New York AG Letitia James asks judge to void Trump's bond in his civil fraud verdict
nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/new-york-ag-letitia-james-asks-judge-void-trumps-bond-civil-fraud-verd-rcna148628
Quick Glance: New York Attorney-General Calls for Invalidation of Donald Trump's $175mn Bond
- Letitia James' office argues that Donald Trump's bond is not backed by sufficient collateral or supported by an appropriately licensed firm.
- The attorney-general's office suggests that the $175mn bond, underwritten by Knight Specialty Insurance Company, should be deemed ineffective, and Trump should be given another week to secure an alternative backer.
- The attorney-general's office contends that the bond is invalid as it is supported by a company that does not possess the required qualification certificate for a valid surety in New York and that insufficient information regarding the collateral was provided.
- Trump's lawyers claimed securing a bond for the full judgment amount was 'impossible', leading the court to reduce it to $175mn. Knight underwrote the bond, yet lacks the necessary certification for a valid surety in New York.

abcnews.go.com/US/live-updates/trump-hush-money-trial/full-jury-panel-now-selected-109433676
Quick Glance: Twelve Jurors Seated in Trump's Hush Money Trial
- A jury of 12 individuals was empaneled on Thursday in the landmark hush money trial of former President Donald Trump, bringing the proceedings closer to opening arguments and the commencement of weeks filled with compelling testimonies.
- The upcoming trial is anticipated to present unfavorable testimonies regarding Trump's personal life pre-presidency, including accusations of manipulating business records to suppress narratives in the final days of the 2016 election surrounding his intimate relationships.
- Central to the trial is a payment of $130,000 made by Cohen just before the 2016 election to adult film actress Stormy Daniels, aimed at preventing her allegations of a sexual encounter with Trump from being publicized in the campaign's final stretch.
- The selection of the jury holds paramount significance in any criminal proceeding, particularly so when the accused is a former president and the presumed Republican candidate. Potential jurors have undergone extensive scrutiny concerning their online presence, personal backgrounds, and political stances as legal representatives and the judge meticulously scrutinize for partialities that could compromise their impartiality.
