Special Edition: Charging the Jury in New York v. Trump

Summarily - A Podcast for Busy Lawyers

The testimony is over in the NY criminal trial against defendant Trump. The jury will hear closing arguments next week and begin deliberations. But questions remain. What will the jury be asked to decide? Will the verdict form include the lesser-include offense of falsifying business records in the second degree? Both sides have a strategic decision to make.
Robert sat down the retired NY Supreme Court Justice Ethan Greenberg to talk about these and other unresolved legal issues in the case. Ethan is a shareholder at Anderson Kill in New York, where he co-chairs the firm’s Government Enforcement, Internal Investigation and White-Collar Defense Practice Group. His most recent piece in the WSJ, published on May 19, is entitled The Big Decision Before the Trump Verdict: Whether the jury weighs misdemeanor charges could affect both the outcome and the appeal.
