Trump lawyer Alina Habba said she was unaware Manhattan federal Judge Lewis Kaplan and Carroll’s lawyer Roberta Kaplan worked together in the early 1990s at the same powerhouse white-shoe law firm until Saturday, when asked about it by Post columnist Charles Gasparino, who was told by a source that the judge was once Roberta Kaplan’s “mentor.
“It was never disclosed. It’s insane and so incestuous,” Habba said, insisting neither the 79-year-old judge nor Roberta Kaplan, 57, who aren’t related, disclosed the “conflict of interest” and a violation of judicial ethics rules.

This is a serious issue. The judge should have disclosed this personal and professional relationship. Habba is going to have a buffet of issues for appeal.

I’ve called it what it is from the beginning…politically persecution.

So nobody thought to check out Kaplan and Kaplan when the damn trial started?

Is this not an issue?

Look at the judge in Georgia having worked in Fani Willis' office.
This stuff is crazy.

Not sure your article matches your title. Enough to hate about the trial without twisting facts. Not related but close ties.

Change your title, sport.

she 1000% knew and wanted the issue for appeal. for a regular joe this likely wouldn't warrant recusal but would warrant disclosure. For a president, it warrants both. Great strategy honestly

Enemies of the left will never get a fair trial.

It has been said multiple times in the past few days yet it simply can’t be overstated: this miscarriage of justice can’t stand without the entire justice system itself losing whatever credibility it still has.
Even if if you think Trump is the anti-Christ, this verdict threatens the liberty of all American who are guaranteed an equal hearing before the law.
“William Roper: “So, now you give the Devil the benefit of law!”
Sir Thomas More: “Yes! What would you do? Cut a great road through the law to get after the Devil?”
William Roper: “Yes, I'd cut down every law in England to do that!”
Sir Thomas More: “Oh? And when the last law was down, and the Devil turned 'round on you, where would you hide, Roper, the laws all being flat? This country is planted thick with laws, from coast to coast, Man's laws, not God's! And if you cut them down, and you're just the man to do it, do you really think you could stand upright in the winds that would blow then? Yes I'd give the Devil benefit of the law, for my own safety's sake!”

Did you see the part it was Nikki's team that helped pay for the lawyer?

Thread title:
Isn’t the same as from the article:
But there’s clearly a conflict that should have been disclosed.
