Attorney's unsuccessful attempt to declare mistrial during E. Jean Carroll trial: Judge rejected attorney's motion due to misunderstanding of mistrial concept and improper disposal of evidence not resolvable by mistrial, requiring new trial.
During the E. Jean Carroll defamation trial, Alina Haba, representing Donald Trump, unsuccessfully attempted to declare a mistrial due to alleged spoliation of evidence by Carroll. Judge Lewis Kaplan rejected Haba's motion, explaining that a mistrial would not have resolved the issue of improper disposal of electronic communications and would have required a new trial. The judge also chastised Haba for her misunderstanding of the concept of a mistrial. This incident underscores the importance of understanding legal procedures and timely raising objections in court.

Trump's team requested a mistrial during E. Jean Carroll trial, but was denied: Judge found Trump's team's request for mistrial to be baseless and untimely, as they failed to present new evidence or arguments, and relied on the same information from the trial
During the E. Jean Carroll trial, Trump's legal team repeatedly requested a mistrial, but the judge denied the motion due to lack of merit and proper justification. The judge's written decision stated that the application was "doubly frivolous" because Trump's team failed to identify any new evidence, controlling law changes, or errors that warranted reconsideration. The judge also noted that Trump's team relied on the same evidence and arguments presented during the trial, and no new cases were cited. The judge ultimately denied the motion on the merits as it was baseless and served no useful purpose. The written motion was also deemed untimely and granting it would be even less sensible than during the trial. Trump's team alleged that E. Jean Carroll deleted threatening messages, but the judge did not find this sufficient justification for a mistrial.
Preserving evidence and going green: Deleting potential evidence can lead to legal consequences, while eco-friendly choices like Real Paper's bamboo toilet paper reduce our carbon footprint and contribute to a sustainable future.
The importance of preserving evidence and being mindful of our environmental impact were the key themes of this discussion. Regarding the legal aspect, deleting potential evidence can lead to serious consequences, such as allegations of spoliation. On the other hand, when it comes to our everyday choices, opting for eco-friendly alternatives, like Real Paper's bamboo toilet paper, can make a significant difference. This not only reduces our carbon footprint but also feels like an upgrade due to its certifications and packaging. By choosing Real Paper, we're not sacrificing anything but instead contributing to a more sustainable future. The history of toilet paper production shows that we've come a long way, but there's still room for improvement. By supporting companies like Real Paper, we can help preserve forests and ensure a cleaner, greener future for all. So, let's make a conscious effort to prioritize preserving evidence in legal matters and making eco-friendly choices in our daily lives.

Alina Haba's Failure to Act on Deleted Messages During Trial: Failure to follow proper procedures for handling potential evidence issues, such as spoliation, can result in unfavorable outcomes in a trial. Always adhere to federal and local rules.
During the trial, Alina Haba failed to act on her concerns about E. Jean Carroll deleting messages that could have been considered evidence, despite it being a potential spoliation issue under federal rules. Haba did not file a motion in a timely manner and did not provide credible evidence to support her case for a mistrial. The jury was still able to hear Haba's arguments regarding the deleted messages, and the ends of justice were served as the information was in the record. Haba seemed to have wanted a spoliation sanctions motion, but this situation did not meet the criteria for spoliation. It is essential to follow the rules and procedures set forth in federal and local rules when dealing with potential evidence issues in a trial.
Trump's team unsuccessfully sought a mistrial due to Carroll's deleted emails: Deletion of evidence without intentional and willful anticipation of litigation does not result in a spoliation claim
During the defamation trial between E. Jean Carroll and Donald Trump, Trump's team unsuccessfully attempted to declare a mistrial based on Carroll's past deletion of emails containing alleged death threats. The judge denied the motion, emphasizing that the deletion did not meet the legal definition of spoliation. Trump's team had previously been aware of the deleted emails but had not taken any action to recover them. The judge also reminded Trump's lawyer, Alina Haba, of the basics of a mistrial and the legal concept of spoliation. The judge's denial marked another loss for both Trump and Haba. This case serves as a reminder that intentional and willful deletion of evidence in anticipation of litigation is required for a spoliation claim.

Episode 165 - What is Discovery in Litigation?
In this week's episode of The Crushing Debt Podcast I talk about Discovery, the process by which the parties to a lawsuit determine, challenge, narrow, and identify the evidence to be used in proving their case to the judge and/or jury.
There are different types of discovery. Depositions are questions asked in an interview style, under oath. Request for Admissions are written statements that the party must admit or deny as true. Request for Production are designed to force the party to show any documentary or physical evidence it intends to rely upon in proving its case. Interrogatories are requests for written narrative answers to be signed under oath. There is an art both to creating and answering discovery.
