You list a witness as "will call" and indicate to the Court that he's available and/or issue a subpoena, and then randomly decide not to call him there can be inferences drawn against you for changing your mind.
It also indicates as another poster said, that they were somehow tipped off that the witness changed his story and/or they realize that nobody would believe him. Regardless, it indicates that they realized he would make their case worse. It further indicates (as another person stated) that they over-charged him on purpose to try to make him invent cuhlusion or some other crap.

Just described how lending to the self employed get mortgage loans

he forged documents to indicate a loan was paid off when it wasn't, or that a property didn't have a mortgage when it did. There are paper trails on all of this including the infamous - can you covert this to a word doc for me rick? email.
On the forged documents that showed a loan was paid off, that could be slightly problematic, but the underwriter and loan officer is required to do the due diligence on all of this. If there was a mortgage, this is on the bank and the bank solely. Most banks are going to employ abstractors, etc, to comb the documents in the clerk's office. Now, if he had a mortgage under private signature (really dumb) that could be problem. Even if this was a commercial loan covered under UCC, there is a due diligence by the lending institution that would pick this up.
I would say that those that signed off on these loans have more legal liability than Manafort. Manafort has more exposure on the tax front

This might be the most incompetent group of prosecutors I have ever seen
But Weissmann et al are dipping from the same well that led to horribly rendered past convictions, and left trial judges in the Enron and Arthur Andersen thoroughly embarrassed. Ellis's antennas are fully up.

the only thing that happens here is he goes down for tax evasion, thats it. there are documents that prove he did that without any doubt.
all the rest of the BS they charged him with just goes up in smoke here

Tax evasion:
Bookkeeper: Paul Manafort 'approved every penny' of bills
Bank Statements, debit/credit advices, etc. document the ownership and foreign locations of bank accounts. Vendors saying they got wire transfers from banks in Cyprus pretty much nails things down.
Bank fraud:
Not sure exactly how this will go, but the bank executive who Manafort bribed conspired to give Manafort loans under fraudulent circumstances.
Feds might want to save the Gates ammunition for later trials and/or bigger game. But one of the prosecutors said today, Gates would testify. He can tie things together.

Can you explain? I don't know the details. Why is paying from an "overseas" bank a problem?
If I had a Swiss Bank Account (Or, one in the Caymans)...could I NOT pay for goods and services from it?
I truly do not know.

Thank you for posting this.
Nothing in this case was derived directly or indirectly from Mueller's investigation. It was a matter opened a decade and a half ago and was mothballed years before muh Russia.

Where did the money come from? If it was income, did you report it ?

Well...that would be important no matter where the bank was, no?
I understand the idea of "this was living beyond the reported funds available" stuff. But, why is it important that the bank was in Cyprus or wherever?

It was clear Manafort was not able to qualify for the loan. Bank President stepped in after being told of the problem. Bank President seeks and/or Manafort offers position in new administration. QUID PRO QUO
