The judge will likely have to jail Trump if he violates the gag order in his hush money trial again, a legal expert has said.
Former President Donald Trump looks to be on his last chance for violating the gag order in his hush money case, a legal expert has said.Ray Brescia, a law professor at Albany Law School in New York and author of Lawyer Nation, told Newsweek that Judge Juan Merchan will likely impose a jail sentence rather than more fines, if Trump violates his gag order again.
'Since it appears that at least these four new statements were made prior to Justice Merchan's sanctions order, it would not surprise me if the judge issued only monetary sanctions again, in the event he finds any of these statements violate the prior gag orders at all,' he said.'It is likely the last time the judge will give the former president that kind of penalty, however,' he said.
