Raw Story has an article here saying:
Trump lawyers made last-minute decision to settle NYC lawsuit after struggling to find jurors who didn't hate him: report
This is the lawsuit brought by four protestors — Efrain Galicia, Florencia Tejeda Perez, Miguel Villalobos, and Norberto Garcia — for the beating the received from security guards at Trump Tower New York during a protest. The article indicates that the potential juror pool was so heavily against him that the lawyers went for settlement after the jury pool went out to lunch.
The articles indicates the concern was that juries in the Bronx are known for high dollar awards to punish wealthy individuals they feel abused the system.
It notes:
Terms of the settlements are still not known, but the plaintiffs in the case -- Efrain Galicia, Florencia Tejeda Perez, Miguel Villalobos, and Norberto Garcia -- quickly signed on after being presented with the offer
Wonder if TFG will try to get the RNC to pay the settlement? My bet is it was a significant dollar amount. I feel no sympathy at all.
