Judge Engoron Accused of Banging Secretary of Opposing Counsel in Previous Case

"On Friday, far left Judge Arthur Engoron fleeced $355 million from President Trump for taking out loans in New York State and paying them back on time and with interest. The charges were brought against Trump by crazed New York State Attorney General Letitia James. There were no victims in the so-called crime. The banks did their due diligence before they loaned Donald Trump the money and testified they would gladly do it again.

Judge Engoron called this a crime and ruled that President Donald Trump owed the state $355 million. But that’s not all. As Volokh Conspiracy reported Engoron also put a Clinton-appointed judge in control of Trump business empire in New York State:

Judge Engoron also appointed retired U.S. District Judge Barbara Jones to continue in her role as an “independent monitor” of the Trump business empire but expanded her authority to review financial disclosures before they are submitted to third parties. Judge Jones can hire an independent director of compliance, and she has the authority to compel Trump to sell some or even all of his businesses down the road. This is all punishment for Trump allegedly committing fraud by falsely in inflating and deflating the value of his real estate assets to pay lower state taxes and to receive more favorable loans from banks.

Judge Arthur Engoron, a committed Democrat, has ruled repeatedly against Trump in the three years he’s been presiding over James’ lawsuit. According to the AP he’s forced Trump to sit for a deposition, held him in contempt and fined him $110,000.

According to reports Judge Engoron has been married three times and has four children.

But Arthur Engoron is no boy scout.

Engoron was banging the secretary of opposing counsel during a previous case – a complete ethics violation.

Nathan Lewin, a defense attorney for the Union of Orthodox Rabbis of the United States and Canada, said the court’s Jan. 23 ruling against his client in several pre-trial decisions is “suspect” because of that relationship, of which he was not informed until late last month.

Lewin is defending the rabbis in an $11 defamation million suit filed by Helen Chayie Sieger of Borough Park, who claims their decision to allow her husband to remarry without requiring him to grant her a rabbinic divorce in effect labeled her an unfit spouse.

Lewin said in court papers that the law secretary, Arthur Engoron, claims he only began dating the secretary of the opposing counsel, Christopher Sullivan, on May 10. But Lewin said Sullivan’s actions in the case may have been “influenced” by information he received from the woman, identified in the papers only as Sue.

And Lewin noted that Engoron “was drafting [later] decisions and communicating” with the judge about this case during the time he was dating Sue.

Schoenfeld, at the request of the defendants, recused himself from the case July 1 after revealing that he had recently learned of the relationship. He said Engoron’s conduct raised ethical questions that he would report to the appropriate authorities, Lewin noted in his papers. Lewin said actions taken in this case may be criminal in nature and asked the court to conduct a full investigation."

So, despite RUMORS about a previous case, the judge did nothing wrong in this case. Good to know.

According to reports Judge Engoron has been married three times and has four children.

But Arthur Engoron is no boy scout.
It's OK when Trump does it, but a crime when judge Engoron does it. RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT

As Volokh Conspiracy reported ...
!!! ROTFL !!!

$355 million from President Trump for taking out loans in New York State and paying them back on time and with interest.
It's MUCH more complicated than that, sunstroke! Look it up in the judge's ruling; scan for SFCs (Statements of Financial Condition). I have conveniently linked the ruling at the bottom.

Falsification of business records is a violation of New York Executive Law EXC § 63(12), which has been on the books since the 1960s.

Trump falsified business records involving:
Trump Tower triplex apartment
40 Wall St
Vornado Realty Trust
Trump Park Ave
Seven Springs
Briarcliffe
Mar-a-Lago
Trump National Golf Club LA
Aberdeen Golf Course

Trump is thus required by law to disgorge profits made from these falsifications.
Disgorgement is distinct from the remedy of
restitution because it focuses on the gain to the wrongdoer as
opposed to the loss to the victim. Thus, disgorgement aims to deter
wrongdoing by preventing the wrongdoer from retaining ill-gotten
gains from fraudulent conduct. Accordingly, the remedy of
disgorgement does not require a showing or allegation of direct
losses to consumers or the public; the source of the ill-gotten gains
is “immaterial.”

There are three groups of profits that must be disgorged, spread over five years.

Engoron ordered basically three tiers of judgements: $168,040,168 with 5~ years of pre-judgment interest; $126,828,600 with 2~ years of pre-judgment interest; and $68,000,000~ with 1~ year of prejudgment interest. The imputed rate in New York for prejudgment interest is 9%.

So, for the $168,040,168 tranche, Trump will owe $263,097,302.80 with the interest added. For the $126,828,600 (2 years), Trump will owe $151,739,452.95. For the remaining $69,026,048, Trump and/or his sons will have to pay $75,501,167.42.

For a grand total of $490,337,923.17! And each year this thing goes unpaid, Trump will owe an additional $44.1 million!

@ElwoodBlues See the testamony of David Williams, Nicholas Haigh, et al.

And just who is it that determines the "value" of any property?
@sunsporter1649 As I've explained to you many many times, it's MUCH more complicated than property values, sunstroke! Look it up in the judge's ruling; scan for SFCs (Statements of Financial Condition). I have conveniently linked the ruling at the bottom.

@MarmeeMarch Suddenly divorcing and remarrying is a crime for elected officials?? Don't tell Newt Gingerich!!!

Are you sure that the judge's divorces all occurred while he was serving as an "elected official"?

@MarmeeMarch I was responding to sunstroke's post. That's where the quote about "married three times" came from. Sunstroke was using the marriages & divorces to impugn the judge, and I was pointing out that the same critique would apply to his orange god.

@ElwoodBlues Then the esteemed judge should be tossed of the bench, by your standards
@sunsporter1649 What falsehood are you trying to imply about my standards?? I never had a problem with Trump cheating on his wives; I was just somewhat amazed that the "family values" party had no problem with it, LOL!!!

@ElwoodBlues As opposed to the "no standards" party?
