We're talking about a ledger item that says legal fees. Paid to a lawyer to satisfy a contract. Legal expenses including payouts are literally a line item on the SEC reports that some companies that I've worked at file. It's a well known and accepted business practice. What planet are we even on?
Lolwut? The Trump organization was not an SEC registrant and 130K was certainly not material in any respect. I've been the Chief accounting/Finance officer at numerous public Companies. This wasn't the settlement of a lawsuit.

Defense attorney Susan Necheles is asking Stormy Daniels about her testimony on Tuesday when Daniels said Trump's actions made her feel like she had to have sex with him.
"My own insecurities made me feel that way," Daniels says.
Quote:

She went on, "He did not put his hands on me. He did not give me any sort of drugs or alcohol and he did not hold a weapon or hold me or threaten me."


Prosecution has to be hating this testimony.

Fee - "a payment made to a professional person or to a professional or public body in exchange for advice or services"

Expense - "the cost required for something; the money spent on something"

Trying to make the argument that a fee is not an expense is just flat out wrong...shows the extreme reach this case is trying to make.


I said it was at least an accounting mistake. I have expressed over and over my doubt the state will prove criminal intent, despite folks repeatedly putting words in my mouth.

I'm not sure why the payment would be proper "legal expenses" or "legal fees" for the corporation. Routing personal expenses through a company to cover those personal, non-business expenses…you can't write those off.

Still, this doesn't come down to "fee" or "expense." It's about reporting campaign related money vs. treating as something not.
How should it have been recorded to correct the accounting mistake?

NDAs are not illegal. Individuals and companies, especially single owner companies, enter NDAs with regularity.
I don't think anyone is arguing that NDAs are illegal. In fact, there is a completely legitimate way they're supposed to be recorded. I swear I saw somewhere how they're supposed to be entered, but for the life of me, I can't find it now..

I completely agree. I'm trying to understand from posters who see no problems with bringing these charges what the correct accounting would have been.

My suspicion is that it's something as germane as arguing about whether the accounting line says "expenses" or "fees".

And, for those of you so hellbent on litigating the difference between a fee and an expense, can you please end the slapfight? No one is changing opinions.

Just getting caught up here. Thanks to Gipper and others for filling in with the quotes from CNN.

I am surprised that Merchan hasn't shut Necheles down more in her questioning. He's allowing her to be forceful and aggressive on this cross.

I'm sure the prosecution is rethinking ever calling her in the first place. And this cross is a preview of what is in store for Cohen because he will make the same mistakes Stormy did, keep yacking adding things instead of tight answers to the question. If the state did coach her extensively as I believe they did, bad strategic error in encouraging her to run with it after being asked an open ended question on their direct examination of her. Those embellishing details will trip the witness up nearly every damn time.

Trump attorney Susan Necheles is returning to the "Make America Horny Again" strip club tour, reminding Stormy Daniels that she testified she hates the name, which is a play on Trump's campaign slogan "Make America Great Again."
Necheles asks whether Daniels ever posted about it on social media.
"Sometimes they made me retweet them," Daniels says.
The jury is seeing two posts about the tour from Daniels' instagram in 2018.
Earlier today, Daniels testified that she never posted about the tour.
"That's not my personal Instagram, that's my business Instagram," Daniels said of the post.

The proper way to account for the payments would be any way which makes it reasonably understandable they weren't actually the businesses' legal expenses but payments for an unrelated personal matter.

That wouldn't absolve them of any (theoretical) underlying issues such as campaign finance violations or wrongfully trying to write that off for tax purposes, but at least the accounting ledgers and statements would be accurate.

Its not about "expenses" vs "fees" or something so pedantic. I think that's been said already this morning.

Quote:

Trump attorney Susan Necheles asks whether she made "a big deal" about not getting dinner when going to Donald Trump's hotel room.
"I went to dinner and didn't get dinner," Daniels says.
Necheles is reading a few different interview accounts from over the the years, including Daniels telling Jimmy Kimmel she was "very food-motivated," so she stayed in the hotel room because she was holding out for dinner.
Necheles then asks whether Daniels said the opposite in her 2011 InTouch interview.
"I never said we ate," Daniels says. Necheles is now bringing up the article for Daniels to review.
Daniels defends herself: "My story's the same."
"I've maintained that I didn't see any food," Daniels. "It was dinner but we never got food."
"All of these interviews I would have talked about the food," Daniels adds.

Quote:

Trump attorney Susan Necheles is now pressing Stormy Daniels about her 2018 interview with Anderson Cooper.
During the interview, Cooper asks Daniels if they went out for dinner. She says no. He asks if they had dinner in the room. She says yes. Daniels says it was dinner time but they didn't eat dinner.
Quote:

"We did not have any food. I did not eat any food. I maintain that in every interview. That has not changed," Daniels says.
"When you said to Anderson Cooper you didn't really mean you had dinner, you meant something else?" Necheles asks.
"We had dinner time in the room," Daniels said.
"Your words don't mean what they say, do they?" Necheles asks. Judge Juan Merchan then sustained an objection.

From the 2011 interview:

Quote:

We ended up having dinner in the room. I cannot remember what we ordered.

Quote:

IT: So this is all conversation while you're eating?

Stormy: Yeah, like before, during, and after.
When you lie, it gets harder to remember the story every time you tell it...

But when you're essentially a sole proprietor business selling the Trump brand everything about you personally is reasonably a business matter.

Daniels recalls being told about being safer hiding in plain sight.
"Something won't happen to you if everyone is looking at you," Daniels says, noting it was one of the reasons she signed the NDA.
Hoffinger follows up: "You were also happy to take the money?"

Hoffinger also shows the InTouch article in 2011 and says it was "lightly edited," noting again that Trump attorney Susan Necheles did not mention that during cross-examination.
If that is how they intend to rehabilitate her, that's not a good direction.

But that's not really an excuse in this context, with how I understand this case.

If Trump knowingly and with the intent to conceal something caused false accounting, then he knowingly and with the intent to conceal something caused false accounting. Even if they have outdated and ****ty accounting software, he would have used that outdated and ****ty accounting software with criminal intent. In other words, Trump would have had it accounted for improperly even if the system was better.

At the end of the day, it doesn't matter if the system *could* have accounted for it more above board. Its about whether Trump wanted it accounted truthfully or not.

If Trump wanted it done correctly, he wouldn't have criminal intent, regardless of whether the system could do it correctly or not.


If they were going after the bookkeeper, and she said the software is ****ty but I don't make that decision so I did the best I could, then that's a more meaningful excuse.

So...

Let's just assume the following as facts...

Trump paid Cohen, a lawyer, for having him get SD to sign an NDA.

An NDA is a legal document.

The attorney was performing a job he had been tasked with - a legal service.

So, explain to me how classifying these as "legal expenses" is in any way incorrect.

Is there a ledger entry that should chosen that said "illegal campaign contribution for legal expenses"?
An NDA is a contract. Payments made to another party per a contract aren't "legal fees." Legal fees are what you paid the lawyer to negotiate and draft the contract.

Mike Elko's salary isn't "legal fees" for A&M even though its a payment per a written contract negotiated and drafted by lawyers. Or, more analogous, Jimbo Fisher's payout isn't "legal fees" even though A&M's lawyers negotiated a contract for Jimbo to not coach.

Lets say you owned a trucking business and you had a contract to lease 50 trucks for $XXXX per month, which you're lawyer negotiated. Those monthly payments aren't legal fees, even though it was negotiated by a lawyer.

If at least some of the payments marked as legal fees weren't actually for legal services, but were actually for Stormy Daniels or to reimburse Cohen for paying Stormy Daniels, then they at least were making an accounting mistake, even if the state doesn't prove a crime.

(***With the obvious exception of payments to a lawyer per a contract for legal services would be legal fees.)
You're splitting hairs. Again.

All of the examples you stated above ultimately resulted in counsel being retained for - and billing for - negotiating and drafting of the contract. Period.

The Trump case is different. To expand on one of your examples above, if A&M hired a consultunt to "take care of the Jimbo Fisher" problem, that could concievably include negotiating, drafting and compensating JF for his departure. Then, the consultant would bill A&M for the whole thing, including compensation.

You are suggesting that if said consultant fails to break down what was negotiating, what was drafting, and what was consulting, then the responsibility is on A&M for the lack of clarity in the invoice.

Based upon your rationale, any construction contract has the potential to be "criminally" miscoded because it was bid and invoiced as a lump sum contract. However, in reality, there was materials, there was labor, there were subcontracts, and there was overhead and profit Your analogy assumes that the building owner now could bear some responsibility of how the contractor invoiced his billings.

Your whole line of reasoning is unreasonable.

You are kind of losing the whole "Baffle them with BS" game. Your might consider packing it in.

That's a pretty gigantic reach and assumption...

I've also seen just in my work tons of companies with systems in various areas of the business that are extremely antiquated. Often a "it works for us, why spend money to change it" situation. So to assume the antiquated accounting system is kept to cover criminal accounting practices is also a pretty hard case to make.

I think our resident 2011 is very indicative of the dangers of an attorney who has an agenda to promote being on a jury.
