Legal Scholar: New Jack Smith Filing Exposes Trump's "Frivolous" Defense

Elisabeth Haub School of Law

It is “commonplace” in criminal litigation that when the defense has a “weak case,” they attack the prosecutor, Bennett Gershman, a former New York prosecutor and law professor at Pace University, told Salon. Here, the defense is claiming that the prosecution had failed to disclose evidence that Trump had a security clearance to retain documents at Mar-a-Lago and that the White House and other federal agencies possessed critical but undisclosed information relevant to the defense case.

Elisabeth Haub School of Law

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Professor Katrina Kuh speaks to Bloomberg Law News about the green amendment gaining traction in more states ahead of elections.

Right now, only Montana, Pennsylvania, and New York have green amendments as van Rossum defines them—to qualify as a true green amendment in her eyes, it must be enshrined in a state’s bill of rights.
