Judge Juan Merchan found Donald Trump in contempt on Tuesday for nine gag order violations in his New York criminal case. The state judge imposed the maximum fine of $1,000 per violation and warned Trump of possible incarceration for further defiance. While imposing the punishment, such as it was, even Merchan acknowledged its relative weakness against this wealthy defendant. But it was nonetheless a historic ruling against the former president and presumptive GOP presidential nominee.
The reason why is that, even if Merchan were to find more violations, that might only yield more low-level fines. The alleged violations at issue occurred before Merchan issued his ruling Tuesday. So if the judge’s jail warning in that ruling was only meant to be applied for violations starting after that, then one might think that fines are the most that can come out of Thursday’s hearing.
