Rep. Stefanik’s full grievance to the New York State Fee:
I’m writing to you regarding potential moral points with respect to Performing Manhattan Supreme Court docket Justice Juan Merchan. On Could 21, 2024, I filed a grievance in opposition to Justice Merchan regarding his presiding over the pending prison case of former President Donald J. Trump. The New York State Fee on Judicial Conduct (the Fee) rejected the grievance on July 3, 2024. As of at present, President Trump is scheduled for sentencing on September 18, 2024, at which he faces as much as 136 years’ imprisonment. New info has come to gentle that deserves a recent look into Justice Merchan’s battle. Neither the Appellate Division nor the Advisory Committee on Judicial Ethics might have identified about this materials once they issued opinions as to Justice Merchan’s persevering with to preside over President Trump’s case.
On July 21, 2024, President Joe Biden introduced that he wouldn’t search a second time period. Inside just a few days, Vice President Kamala Harris was anointed to turn out to be the Democrat Get together’s nominee for the presidency. Throughout his marketing campaign, President Biden used one firm, Amazon Net Companies (AWS), for the marketing campaign’s website hosting companies.1 President Biden’s marketing campaign paid AWS all through 2023 by way of the suspension of his marketing campaign in July 2024. On August 20, 2024, Vice President Harris’s marketing campaign submitted its first Federal Election Fee (FEC) report that documented bills and donations by way of July 31, 2024. Within the report, particularly on Type 3P, line 232, a July 30, 2024, disbursement seems within the quantity of $468.00 from Vice President Harris’s marketing campaign to Genuine Campaigns Inc. (Genuine) for website hosting companies. This means that one of many very first issues that Harris did upon taking on the Biden marketing campaign infrastructure is to rent this agency, Genuine.
Genuine is a digital consulting and advertising and marketing agency that companies Democrat candidates. Loren Merchan, Justice Merchan’s daughter, is its president. Vice President Harris modified website hosting corporations from AWS to Genuine instantly after changing into the presumptive Democrat presidential nominee. Because the FEC report’s submitting didn’t happen till August 20, almost a month after the Harris marketing campaign and Genuine had begun doing enterprise, nobody within the public, together with the Fee, might have identified of the connection. That is merely the start of a brand new contract with a brand new marketing campaign, whatever the quantity reimbursed. Positive, there’s an instantaneous profit, however it is a play at a possible bigger profit for Genuine and Merchan down the highway.
The Code of Conduct, particularly § 100.3(E)(1)(d)(iii), dictates {that a} choose should recuse from a case the place a relative as much as and together with the sixth diploma has a monetary curiosity within the end result of the case. Ms. Merchan is said to Justice Merchan within the first diploma. Genuine has a newly lively monetary relationship with Vice President Harris’s marketing campaign. President Trump’s sentencing, an occasion which can garner worldwide media protection, is imminent. This occasion, a month and a half previous to the November 5 election, might have a profound impression on that election; certainly, some states could have commenced mail voting by that date. Given this revelation of a brand-new battle of curiosity for Choose Merchan, I respectfully request that the Fee interact in a recent inquiry regarding Justice Merchan’s battle and take any applicable motion ensuing from it.
At this time I filed a brand new judicial ethics grievance with the New York State Fee as a result of new proof on Kamala Harris’ most up-to-date FEC submitting reveals she employed and paid Performing Justice Juan Merchan’s grownup daughter’s firm.
