Trump to appeal ruling that requires him to testify in New York investigation
Former President Donald Trump has filed papers in court as part of his ongoing effort to avoid testifying in an investigation of his business practices in New York.
The former president filed papers U.S. District Court in Albany in response to a ruling Friday by Judge Brenda K. Sannes, who dismissed Trump's effort to fight a subpoena issued by New York attorney general Letitia James, reported Insider.
The notice of appeal shows Trump plans to ask the federal appeals court to reverse the judge's decision.
James argued that her office has uncovered "substantial" evidence of financial wrongdoing and self-serving falsehoods in a decade's worth of Trump business filings.

(12,286 posts)4. I just don't understand how he is allowed to file INFINITY APPEALS
And drag this shit out IN PERPETUITY.
And this is just for testifying under oath in a civil trial.
And yet there are those that think he'll be indicted?
Not by this justice system.
It is a travesty of a joke of a farce.

(15,373 posts)11. Requesting and granting are two different things.
Some stays are routinely granted pending appeal, but this isnt a typical case.

Not sure the feds have jurisdiction over a state matter.
