Donald Trump's lawyer, Joe Tacopina, says he believes the Manhattan grand jury indictment against Trump will not see a jury trial. Tacopina made the prediction and insisted that Trump will not plead guilty to any of the charges levied against him.
Tacopina made the prediction and insisted that Trump will not plead guilty to any of the charges levied against him while speaking Tuesday morning on ABC's Good Morning America.
"One thing I can assure you as I sit here today, there will be no guilty plea in this case. That's one thing I can guarantee you. I don’t think this case is going to see a jury. I think it's going to go away on papers. I think there's a legal challenge that will be made and should be made successfully," Tacopina said.
"There's no indication that there'll be a gag order. It can't happen in this case. Look, when you have a gag order, you have to balance a couple of things: the First Amendment ... and the right to a fair trial for both sides. So it's a balancing act," Tacopina said.
