Michael Popok: 'Donald Trump’s Lawyers Instantly WALK INTO Judge’s TRAP'

Source:Meidas Touch with a look at New York State Judge Arthur Engoron & perhaps Trump University law graduate Alina Habba.

"Alina Habba and her co counsel are teetering on the edge of an ethics charge and bar license complaint by Judge Engoron and their communication with the judge have only made matters worse. Michael Popok of Legal AF explains how Judge Engoron laid an ethical trap for Habba about allowing a lying witness and defendant in the NY Civil fraud case against Trump to take the stand, and how Habba stepped into it with both legs." 

From the Meidas Touch

As I wrote about Alina Habba back in November: 

"Alina Habba is not really a trial lawyer. She can barely afford to do whatever she does as a lawyer right now. She's more of a public relations lawyer, if anything at all, who makes her living trying her client's cases on TV and on social media. But she's officially Donald Trump's civil lawyer right now because she's about the best of what's left to try to defend him, because of his own financial situation and all the evidence that's against him right now, in multiple cases. 

Perhaps one of the reasons right now that Alina Habba owes millions of dollars, is because her own client is not paying her. But she's trying to work for him anyway, perhaps banking on the fact that defending a former President of the United States, would lead to clients who can and would pay her very well for her legal advice and actions in the future. But that career strategy is obviously not working out for her right now." 


Would it surprise me if Donald Trump's lawyer Alina Habba put a perjurer on the witness stand, whether it is Trump Organization Chief Financial Officer Allen Weisselberg or anyone else? Of course not. The only question is did she knowingly do that, or did she not even bother to do her homework when it came to her own damn witness's testimony. 

Alina Habba has already lost motions because she didn't bother to read cases that she was referencing to help her client Donald Trump. As well as lose appeals because she didn't even meet the deadline as far as when her appeal was supposed to be filed. 

When it comes to Alina Habba, we're not talking about William Kunstler or even Alan Dershowitz, when it comes to professional, high-caliber, high-end, trial lawyers in America. Not even Perry Mason, who of course is perhaps the most famous fictional trial lawyer in American history. Alina Habba like I mentioned a few weeks ago: 

"Imagine you are watching some soap opera in the afternoon. Perhaps you are too sick to work that day and perhaps you are just vegging out on the couch or something, perhaps trying to watch the TV shows you simply don't watch on a regular basis, or don't have time to watch. 

So after flipping around for a while, you find a soap opera and in that episode, the star of that show is on trial for their life. And Alina Habba is playing the defense lawyer and because it's a soap opera, you see all of her courtroom antics and the judge whose trying to look like a professional lawyer (even on a soap opera) simply not having it and putting Alina in her place every time she pulls some courtroom stunt. 

Or, imagine one of those trash/made up TV episodes (also known as reality TV) and this time one of the stars of the show is on trial for their life and the judge whose perhaps looking for fame themselves (perhaps a Lance Ito admirer) for some freakin reason, decides not to just allow cameras in their courtroom, but this so-called reality TV show to not just film in the courtroom, but to film their show in the courtroom. And Alina again playing the defense lawyer, because she not just has a guilty client, but she's simply not a qualified, credible, defense trial lawyer, is playing the same games, even with the judge calling her out every time and putting her back in her place. 

That's the kind of lawyer Alina Habba is. If she didn't have a legal license, she would be one of the best soap and so-called reality TV stars of the last 25 years. She has no business defending someone who actually needs quality, legal, counsel, right now, for the simple reasons that Donald Trump is literally fighting for his freedom and financial security right now and is obviously guilty of what he's being charged with in every case that he's facing."
