Jeff J Mitchell/Getty ImagesNEW YORK — -- Former President Donald Trump"has more than sufficient information to prepare his defense" and is not entitled to a written statement with additional details about the criminal charges he is facing, the Manhattan district attorney's office argued Tuesday in a new court filing.
Defense attorneys are seeking more information about the substance of the allegations regarding Trump's allegedly criminal conduct. They also want prosecutors to specify the other crime Trump is alleged to have aided by falsifying business records, which enabled him to be charged with felonies. The falsification of business records is a misdemeanor unless it is committed in furtherance of another crime, in which case it can be charged as a felony.
"[T]he People respond that the crimes defendant intended to commit or to aid or conceal may include violations of New York Election Law, New York Tax Law and New York Penal Law; or violations of the Federal Election Campaign Act," Mangold said.
