What do they mean by this? Do you know which NY statute Bragg is prosecuting?
IIRC, that's the hook to get around the SOL issue.
Even if the jury finds that this behavior violates the wacky business records law, they have to rely on a second statute with a longer SOL, which requires the campaign association.
The meat is the business records part.

Ok, I think I'm starting to get it.
quote:
"Mr. Trump’s lawyers argued that the New York statute requires that the predicate (underlying) crime must also be a New York crime, not a crime in another jurisdiction. The Manhattan DA responded with judicial precedents only about other criminal statutes, not the statute in this case. In the end, they could not cite a single judicial interpretation of this particular statute supporting their use of the statute," Shugerman wrote.
I guess it all comes down to Bragg's effort to try a federal crime in a state court. The expert also stated there was no previous case of "any state prosecutor relying on the Federal Election Campaign Act,". Thoughts?
