This is Michael Popok, legal A F. Well, if you're in trouble in Manhattan, federal court,

like Donald Trump is in the E. Jean Carroll civil rape case, what do you naturally do

when you don't like your attorneys that you've chosen?

Well, you reach out and go to Kansas City, of course.

You go get a Kansas City male attorney by the name of a Perry brand, who nobody's ever

heard of in New York or outside of New York, who'd been, you know, at a good firm in the

Midwest for about 35 years or so, then retired out there, went to another firm in February

where they made a big announcement, big splashy announcement about Perry brand, formerly

a bar president in Kansas City and all that.

But he's no longer there because when he filed his notice of appearance, just 72 hours

before the start of the trial to join the trial team, he listed a, not a law firm.

He listed a PO box and a Gmail.

Being says legitimate trial lawyer like a PO box and a Gmail address, but that's what

Donald Trump obviously looking at Takapena and Habba losing a motion after motion after

motion in front of Judge Kaplan in the last week has had enough.

Now here's my theory because you don't bring in an outside lawyer with 72 hours to go.

For those that don't practice, let me tell you, this is highly unusual.

And that highly unusual phrase is doing a lot of heavy lift in that sentence.

You don't do this.

You don't change counsel this quickly.

You're not going to get a continuance.

You're not going to get a delay or an extension.
