By Lee Kovarsky (U Texas- Austin)
Lee Kovarksy carefully dissects, and, I think, disposes of Jed Shugerman's argument that Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg has blundered by inducing a New York Grand Jury to charge Donald Trump with federal crimes over which the State lacks jurisdiction.
The fundamental mistake, it seems to me, is that the alleged false statements are elevated from misdemeanor to felony by the intent to violate federal alw. The exclusive federal jurisdiction is thus not infringed.
But read Kovarsky who has put together the argument very carefully and persuasively.
