Rep. Stefanik Alleges Misconduct in Judge Assignments for Trump Trials

Stefanik's complaint questions the random selection process, suggesting intentional bias in assigning Judge Merchan to multiple Trump-related cases.

Rep. Elise Stefanik filed a misconduct complaint regarding the assignment of Judge Juan Merchan to multiple Trump-related cases.
Stefanik argues that the probability of Merchan being randomly assigned to all these cases is extremely low.
The complaint highlights Merchan's donations to Biden and his daughter's work for Democratic campaigns as potential conflicts of interest.
Stefanik has called for an investigation into whether the required random selection process was followed.
The New York State Office of Court Administration maintains that Merchan's assignments were routine and based on his familiarity with the cases.
