The former president’s 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 Trump’s 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-president’s defamation trial because she was feeling under the weather.
On Monday, one of the nine jurors considering writer E. Jean Carroll’s second defamation suit against Trump was excused for being ill.
Though Judge Lewis Kaplan and Carroll’s lawyers agreed to continue the trial with eight jurors, Trump’s 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 Trump’s win in the New Hampshire primary by NBC News’ Garrett Haake.
Seems to take a couple years but a whole lotta trump lawyers end up disbarred, sued, and indicted. I mean look at rudy, cheesebro, ellis, powell, kleinhendler. Habba has already been sanctioned. Then there is the clown car carousel of lawyers leaving the legal team, no doubt when he insists they risk their license or break the law, most recently tacopino. These are the smart ones. Why any lawyer would represent diet hitler is beyond me.
They would if they think he’ll win.
Probably some hoping to gain fame by a big case. The Kardashians only became popular because of the OJ trial.
