11. Trump asks New York court to stop fining him $10,000 daily for refusing to turn over documents

This idiot thinks that the judge is being unfair. Haba claims to have looked for the documents and wants the appeal court to block $10,000 a day fine.

Trump fought a subpoena to hand over documents involving his business practices as part of the investigation by New York Attorney General Letitia James. Ultimately, a judge decided that Trump must comply and that for each day he refused he would be issued a contempt fine of $10,000.

In his filing Monday, Trump, through his attorney, called the judge unfair.

“We have a judge that frankly has been unbelievably unfair,” Trump told Bloomberg News via phone.....

Alina Habba, one of Trump's lawyers who frequently appears on OAN, said that she personally has tried to find the documents that are being sought.

Last week, Trump filed a sworn affidavit saying he was never aware of the records he needed to turn over to Attorney General James. The judge didn't buy it.
