Criminal Defense Attorney to Donald Trump, the 45th President of the United States, Joseph Tacopina told reporters on Monday that he and the rest of Trump’s legal team are poised to file “a host of motions,” against Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.
These motions include but aren’t limited to motions to dismiss on grounds of prosecutorial misconduct and selective prosecution, according to The Epoch Times.
Tacopina said in an appearance on Fox News‘s ‘Hannity‘,
“There will be a host of motions we’re going to make, including … a motion to dismiss based on selective prosecution and prosecutorial misconduct.”

Tacopina emphasized to Hannity that the novel concept of the case, using federal law to elevate a state misdemeanor to a felony is by definition selective prosecution.
“Of course, that is why it is selective prosecution. Again, if the was not named Donald Trump, there would be no indictment. That’s a fact … There would not be a case if this wasn’t Donald Trump,” he explained.
“And so that’s where you … we’re really gone amok here. You select the person you don’t like, Donald Trump, and you try to find a crime. So it is mind-boggling to me that we’re here. We are here. But it’s just not going to hold up.”
