Happy (Superseding) Indictment Day to all who celebrate! Contrary to popular opinion (on here at least, it seems), Merchan is not in the bag for the Dems and he's been doing this job too long to put himself in a position where his sentence will be disturbed for obvious partisanship. For realz (legal term of art). In my own exceedingly 'umble opinion, since the state isn't begging for sentencing to happen immediately, and Trump is asking for a delay, there's going to be a delay. Maybe kick it out 90 days which... takes you to after the election. 90 days isn't an excessive amount of time to delay sentencing either, from the little I know about criminal law, especially when the sides stipulate to a continuance. Sometimes judges get cranky and tell you no, but in my experience in civil cases, they're generally amenable. They like when the sides play nice. Now, in the longer term? Another 'umble opinion, all my own: despite racking up 34 felonies, Trump isn't going to prison. Could he? Of course! But Merchan has discretion in sentencing. Worst case scenario (for Trump): confinement to Mar-a-Lago for a while, perhaps with restrictions on persons he can associate with while there; ankle monitor; some probation. Best case? Probation only, since he has never been convicted of a crime before. Who knows! There's a lot of leeway, but he's not going to have to worry about dropping the soap in his gold-plated shower at Mar-a-Lago. Peace be with you all, dipping out again until another indictment. Until then,

Like you, I went through the DCF process in London. At the interview, I submitted the copy of my decree absolute that I obtained from my solicitor. This bore an official seal from the High Court, but the seal was a very simple ink stamp of endorsement. No problems whatsoever. If you used a solicitor for your divorce, perhaps you can contact them for such a copy. Alternatively, you'll need to get it through the Principal Registry, as outlined above. Good luck -- this is the very last hurdle and you're nearly past the finish line!

Happy Fourth Indictment Day to all who celebrate! https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-indicted-georgia-racketeering-rcna74912 FYI: probation is not available to a defendant convicted of RICO in Georgia.

Wonder whose Cheerios he micturated in to get recommended for impeachment. https://apnews.com/article/texas-attorney-general-paxton-impeachment-1eaccf00ce80d26c4fc94eab1672e1bd
