Juan Merchan denied Trump’s request for a recusal as Trump escalated his criticism of a different judge overseeing one of his other criminal cases.
New York Supreme Court Judge Juan Merchan rejected assertions by Donald Trump's lawyers that Merchan had a “preconceived bias” against the former president. | Getty ImagesNEW YORK — The judge overseeing the Manhattan district attorney’s criminal case against Donald Trump denied the former president’s effort to have the judge recuse himself,that “this Court has examined its conscience and is certain in its ability to be fair and impartial.
Trump had argued that Merchan is biased and has a conflict of interest. In court papers, Trump’s lawyers said Merchan should step aside due to “actual or perceived conflict of interest” because his daughter works for a digital agency, Authentic, whose clients include a number of Democratic officials.
Regarding his daughter’s employment, Merchan cited an advisory opinion from the committee with respect to the Trump criminal case that concluded: “We see nothing in the inquiry to suggest that the outcome of the case could have any effect on the judge’s relative, the relative’s business, or any of their interests.”
