A Manhattan judge has set an October 24 trial date for Donald Trump's business and his former CFO. Before learning their trial date, Weisselberg and lawyers for the Trump family business first learned a string of bad, though likely expected, news. If convicted of the grand larceny charge, Weisselberg, 74, would have to serve a mandatory minimum of one year in jail; the charge allows for the unlikely maximum sentence of 15 years. Also at the prosecution table was Gary Fishman, who is leading New York Attorney General Letitia James' probe into Trump and the Trump Organization; he is cross-designated as a Manhattan prosecutor. The prosecution of Weisselberg and the Trump Organization is the only indictment to come out of Manhattan.
