The former presidentās legal team requested a trial delay, saying Habba had been exposed to COVID and had a fever. She attended the party one day later.
Donald Trumpās attorney, Alina Habba, was spotted rubbing elbows with Republicans in New Hampshire on Tuesday, just the day after asking for a delay in the ex-presidentās defamation trial because she was feeling under the weather.
On Monday, one of the nine jurors considering writer E. Jean Carrollās second defamation suit against Trump was excused for being ill.
Though Judge Lewis Kaplan and Carrollās lawyers agreed to continue the trial with eight jurors, Trumpās legal team requested a delay, saying Habba had been exposed to COVID and had a fever. She was not wearing a mask during the hearing.
The next day, however, Habba was sighted celebrating Trumpās win in the New Hampshire primary by NBC Newsā Garrett Haake.
Which I believe Trump is banking on when hiring bad lawyers. To his base it looks like heās being treated poorly, which will make the base more militant. That way Trump can get the SCOTUS stormed if heās about to be convicted in the January 6 trial.
Agreed. It also helps that no competent lawyer will work for him.
Since Trump has a reputation for not paying his legal representation, and money is what lawyers crave, Iām sure Trump could get decent lawyers by paying up front.
Not even. He also tends not to listen to their advice and undermines his own case by blathering in public. Heās not worth the headaches.
