Report: The Judge Who Will Preside Over Trump's Case Is No Stranger to the Former President

By Johnathan Jones

March 31, 2023 at 9:04am

The judge expected to preside over former President Donald Trump’s upcoming potential trial after he was indicted by a New York prosecutor is no stranger to the country’s 45th commander in chief.

According to multiple reports, that man will almost certainly be Colombian-born acting New York State Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan.

Merchan was born in Bogota and moved to New York City at the age of six. He grew up not far from where Trump did in Queens, WNBC-TV reported.

But the two have more in common than having been raised in the same borough of the country’s most populous city.

Merchan oversaw the trial of the Trump Organization’s former CFO, Allen Weisselberg, last year.

Weisselberg accepted a plea deal after he and the Trump Organization were accused of tax crimes. Merchan sentenced Weisselberg to five months in prison and ordered the Trump Organization to pay a $1.6 million fine in January.

Merchan will also decide the legal fate of Steve Bannon in his felony criminal case after he was accused in New York of money laundering, CBS News reported.

Bannon was Trump’s chief White House strategist when he entered the White House in 2017.

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office announced Thursday evening it had called Trump’s legal team to inform them that the former president would be criminally charged on the recommendation of a grand jury.

“This evening we contacted Mr. Trump’s attorney to coordinate his surrender to the Manhattan D.A.’s Office for arraignment on a Supreme Court indictment, which remains under seal,” Bragg’s office said in a statement. “Guidance will be provided when the arraignment date is selected.”

Trump is the first president, current or former, to be indicted, and he is expected to appear in court on Tuesday of next week.
