TL;DR Summary

Attorneys for former President Donald Trump are seeking a mistrial in his New York fraud case, alleging bias and unfair treatment by the judge and his clerk. Trump's lawyers claim that the judge has shown favoritism towards the New York Attorney General, Letitia James, and that the clerk has been "co-judging" the case. The mistrial motion comes after Trump testified in the case and accused the judge of being a "fraud." The trial, which began in October, is expected to last through mid-December. Trump, his sons, and their company are accused of fraudulently inflating property valuations and net worth to banks and insurers.
