\n President Trump\u2019s lawyers returned to Manhattan federal court on Thursday to continue their fight to block the commander-in-chief\u2019s long-sought tax returns from being made public \u2014 with a bullish Manhattan DA\u2019s Office declaring \u201cbring it on.\u201d<\/p>\n

Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr. was awarded a minor win last week when the Supreme Court ruled in his favor and declared the president was not immune from state criminal investigations \u2014 paving the way for a New York grand jury to subpoena Trump\u2019s financial records.<\/p>\n

The final decision on a subpoena was sent back to Manhattan federal court, where the DA\u2019s general<\/a> counsel Carey Dunne on Thursday told Judge Victor Marrero: \u201cOur position is bring it on.\u201d<\/p>\n

On the teleconference call, Trump\u2019s lawyers argued the subpoena from Vance\u2019s office requesting the president\u2019s accounting firm Mazars USA hand over eight years of tax returns was vague and a politically motivated attempt to harass him.<\/p>\n

Trump attorney William Consovoy called the subpoena a \u201cwildly over-broad\u201d carbon copy of a similar subpoena from congressional investigators that was also tossed out by the Supreme Court last week.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is not a properly tailored subpoena. This subpoena is copied verbatim from a congressional subpoena,\u201d Consovoy told Marrero.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s quite unclear how a congressional subpoena focused on issues ranging from international to the management of a hotel in Washington, DC could be related to a subpoena from the New York District Attorney,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n

But Vance\u2019s office was confident in its case, mainly because it was already heard before Marrero last year, with the judge tossing out the president\u2019s argument that he should be immune from investigation, calling it \u201crepugnant.\u201d<\/p>\n

Democratic-leaning New York prosecutors are seeking the Republican president\u2019s tax returns as part of an investigation into whether he paid hush money before the 2016 election to several women with whom he allegedly had affairs.<\/p>\n

\u201cI can\u2019t help but observe that we\u2019re in the same place nearly a year ago and that is what the president\u2019s lawyers are seeking here: delay. I think that\u2019s the entire strategy here,\u201d Dunne said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese exotic constitutional immunity claims have now been rejected by the Supreme Court,\u201d he added, warning that \u201cjustice delayed becomes justice denied.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dunne also said the idea that the president was being burdened by the subpoena request was nonsense because the onus is on Mazars USA to produce the records.<\/p>\n

The Supreme Court last week ruled that the president was \u201cneither absolutely immune from state criminal subpoenas seeking his private papers nor entitled to a heightened standard of need.\u201d<\/p>\n

The historic ruling will allow Vance to have a grand jury subpoena eight years of the president\u2019s tax returns \u2014 but the matter will ultimately be decided by Marrero.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Supreme Court noted that prosecutors cannot go on \u2018arbitrary fish expeditions\u2019 and the court must assess whether the Mazar subpoena is suitably tailored over overly broad,\u201d Marrero said Thursday.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe second set of issues deals with questions of bad faith and harassment,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe court may also need to consider whether the Mazar subpoena is motivated by a desire to harass or is conducted in bad faith as the Supreme Court noted,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Trump lawyers tried to sue Vance\u2019s office in 2019 before the move was thrown out by two courts, leading to an app<\/a>eal to the Supreme Court, the highest legal authority in the United States.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
