The Lighter Side of Legal: Glenn Chats with Fellow MSNBC Legal Analyst Danny Cevallos Pt. 2 Dec 06, 2024

Show notes

The legal news of the day can be challenging, depressing, and even anxiety producing. So Glenn decided to lighten things up a bit and do a recurring segment called "The Lighter Side of Legal."

In this new series, he sits down with TV news legal analysts and discusses things like:

who inspired them to pursue legal analyst work?
what are their most memorable cases when they were practicing law?
what are their most memorable green room encounters?
what are their favorite movies involving the law?
and many other fun topics

For the first episode - he sat down with fellow MSNBC legal analyst Danny Cevallos. Given that Danny is a career defense attorney and Glenn's a former career prosecutor, they often come at the legal issues of the day from two very different perspectives. Yet, more often than not, they end up landing at the same place on the legal issues of the day.

Judge Chutkan Dismisses Trump's DC Case "Without Prejudice." Is A Future Prosecution Realistic? Nov 28, 2024

Show notes

Special Counsel Jack Smith filed a motion to dismiss "without prejudice" Trump's federal criminal case for trying to steal the 2020 presidential election. Judge Chutkan granted the dismissal without prejudice, meaning the case can potentially be prosecuted in the future when Trump is no longer president. But how realistic is a future prosecution of Trump for his democracy-busting crimes? And what steps can Trump and his future AG take to try to make any future prosecution impossible? Glenn discusses the variables and the likelihood of a future prosecution of Trump.

While Trump's Criminal Cases Are On Hold - His Civil Cases Will Continue Full Speed Ahead Nov 26, 2024

Show notes

The future of Donald Trump's FOUR criminal cases is uncertain. Some may be put on hold and revived after he leaves office, while others may be dismissed before he's sworn in. However, the many civil suits pending against Trump at the moment should continue during his presidency because there have been rulings that he's not immune from many of the cases that individuals have brought against him in his capacity as a private citizen.
