    He can go to her funeral, that’s the ridiculous part. His attorney represents him in court, and anything he misses Thursday can be recounted to him on Friday.

      Yep. It was just a delaying tactic by Habba. Who is stupid. So it didn’t work. Because the judge is not stupid.

        Just because a lawyer tries something that doesn’t work doesn’t mean they’re stupid. They’re being paid to try anything they can.

        I’m not saying Habba isn’t stupid, but this isn’t the reason why.

          Habba tries anything she can in stupid ways. Because she’s stupid. And trying to delay a trial by saying Trump has to attend a funeral when Trump doesn’t have to be at the trial is fucking stupid.

            He also doesn’t have to attend the funeral. He gets to choose, and the judge doesn’t give a fuck what he chooses.

              Sure, but I think claiming that you have to go to a funeral is a legitimate excuse to reschedule a court date. Just not when you don’t have to be in court anyway.
