jordanlund, 11 days ago It’s not gymnastics. In a criminal case, presence is mandatory. So how do you expect a criminal defendant to appear in two different courthouses at the same time? Let’s finish the NY trial, then he can go on trial somewhere else while waiting on sentencing in NY. Court #2 can give him a release to attend sentencing then work with that prison system so he can appear in court #2. Estimates are the NY case should be wrapped up somewhere around the first week in June.
