New York Appellate Judge Smacks Down Far-Left Judge Engoron, Pauses Dissolving Trump Org.
2023-10-07
[ABC News via Gateway] A New York appellate judge declined to pause Donald Trump’s ongoing civil fraud trial, after attorneys for Trump sought a stay of the trial while they appeal Judge Arthur Engoron’s summary judgment ruling last week that decided the core of the case.

Judge Peter Moulton issued the ruling minutes after hearing oral arguments from both sides. While he did not pause the trial, he did stop the immediate cancelation of Trump’s business certificates that Engoron had ordered last week.

"This is everything owned or controlled by the defendant. Once you dissolve you dissolve," defense attorney Christopher Kise argued in an afternoon hearing convened at the Appellate Division’s First Department. "It’s chaos. It’s chaos right now."

Eric Trump responded to the New York Appellate Court’s decision to pause the dissolution of Trump Org.

"We thank the Appellate Division for staying the NY Attorney General’s and Judge Engoron’s overzealous attempt to cancel our New York business certificates. Judge Engoron’s order erroneously sought to adjudicate the rights of non-party business entities that employ nearly 1,000 hard-working New Yorkers, have never been accused of any wrongdoing and, were never given their day in court — in clear violation of their fundamental Constitutional rights and Due Process. We will continue to vigorously defend our company and our incredible employees from this politically-motivated persecution," Eric Trump said.
