Trump loses bid to delay handover of tax returns to New York prosecutor - Reuters

NEW YORK (Reuters) - A U.S. judge on Friday denied President Donald Trump’s request to delay letting Manhattan’s district attorney obtain his tax returns for a criminal investigation into his family’s real estate business while Trump pursues an appeal.
============================================================
I expect them to find evidence of years of corruption.

Money laundering. Inflating for loan, deflating for taxes. For likely many years.

His actions may be paying off loans, or putting cash in foreign accounts.

Former Trump personal lawyer Michael Cohen said Trump always had his businesses appear more profitable to lenders and less profitable to tax officials.

This would constitute tax fraud and mortgage fraud.
 
More current news on the subject of the O/P.

A federal appeals court said Friday it wouldn't step in right away to delay New York prosecutors’ effort to get President Donald Trump's tax records, potentially leaving the Supreme Court as his most promising option to block prosecutors' subpoena.
The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals denied Trump’s request to immediately put Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus R. Vance Jr.’s subpoena on hold while Trump appeals to try to get it invalidated.

The appeals court said it would hold a hearing on the request for a delay, but not until Sept. 1. After winning a lower court ruling, Vance's office had agreed not to enforce the subpoena before Aug. 28.

The DA’s office declined to comment on what the appeals court ruling might mean for that time frame. Messages were sent to Trump’s lawyers.
The case has already been to the Supreme Court and back, and Trump has said he expects it to end up there again.
Even if the tax records ultimately are subpoenaed, they would be part of a confidential grand jury investigation and not automatically made public.

IMO, a likely fishing expedition by Democrat Vance and his crew.

It has to go to the supremes, because as a constitutional question you can’t have every opposite party DA in America suing the POTUS, thus interfering with the business of America.

If this is the way forward, then every DA in America is now free to go after the Obamas, the Biden’s, and the Clinton’s, on other matters.

We have too many lawyers and not enough enough hammers swingers and wrench turners. That’s why it takes ten years to put in an outhouse.
