Professor Bruce Green, director of Fordham Law’s Stein Center, shared his expert opinion with Bloomberg Quint on the recent resignations from the two prosecutors leading the Manhattan D.A. criminal case against former President Trump.
The two prosecutors leading the Manhattan district attorney’s criminal case against former President Donald Trump’s real-estate company and its longtime chief financial officer resigned unexpectedly, according to a person familiar with the matter. Carey Dunne and Mark Pomerantz, who have been at the helm of the probe, quit on Wednesday, the person said, less than two months after Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg took office.

Bruce Green, a law professor and chair of the Louis Stein Center for Law and Ethics at Fordham Law School, said the resignations are a sign that Bragg has decided not to move ahead with any charges against the Trumps — the biggest question hanging over the case — and that the prosecutors disagree. “If they were going to do a prosecution of these folks they would be sticking around to help,” Green said. “The fact that they quit in a public way suggests they wanted the case to go forward and the DA decided not to seek an indictment against Trump or his family.”
