At least one of the Trump University cases is now moving toward a trial. In New York’s Supreme Court, Judge Cynthia Kern asked on Tuesday that the lawyers representing Donald Trump and his real estate school file a motion within 45 days laying out a framework for the discovery process.
Lawyers from the New York State attorney general's office — which has alleged that Trump University cheated students out of some $40 million — had wanted to advance the suit so that it would be ready to proceed to trial in the near future, possibly after the New York Court of Appeals decides on another matter governing the case.
The Trump defense attorneys claimed that they lacked the necessary information to go forward with depositions and asserted that, as it stood, the state would need to call all 5,000 students involved in order to meet the legal burdens of common law fraud.
Kern disagreed with that assessment, and seemed eager to move forward.
Trump's lawyers should depose all 5,000 students in its defense. That should drag the matter out until 2040.

Why would you want this? People deserve justice for wrongs committed against them.
