Twitter Users Catch Apparent Big Mistake Made by Judge on Trump Arrest Document

Twitter users were quick to notice an interesting error on the bond document signed by the judge presiding over former President Donald Trump’s arraignment in Miami on Tuesday.

Magistrate Judge Jonathan Goodman’s signature seemed to indicate the wrong date, with “July 13, 2023” instead of “June 13.”

Does anyone notice that it looks like the date is incorrect on the document? It looks like the handwritten date says JULY 13, 2023 instead of JUNE 13, 2023.

It looks like July to me.

One user even questioned if this error invalidated the document.

@CNN @NormEisen Judge signed date as July.

Does this invalidate this document? https://t.co/mCWRDQ0D2B

According to Newsweek, clerical errors like this can be easily corrected by the court.

However, it’s worth noting that Judge Goodman is not expected to have any further involvement in Trump’s case regarding the alleged mishandling of classified documents. The judge assigned to preside over the matter is U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon of the Southern District of Florida, who was appointed by Trump in 2020.

Some individuals on the left have argued that Judge Cannon is biased in Trump’s favor and should be removed from the case. However, Chief Clerk Angela Noble stated that Cannon would remain unless she chose to recuse herself, as reported by The New York Times.

During his arraignment, Trump pleaded “not guilty” to all 37 counts in the indictment, which the Department of Justice made public late last week.

After the proceedings, Trump headed to his golf resort in Bedminster, New Jersey, where he addressed the events of the day.

“Today we witnessed the most evil and heinous abuse of power in the history of our country. Very sad thing to watch,” Trump said.

“A corrupt sitting president had his top political opponent arrested on fake and fabricated charges of which he and numerous other presidents would be guilty, right in the middle of a presidential election in which he is losing very badly,” he added.

Trump predicted that this day would “go down in infamy” and be remembered as the one where Biden and his administration “tried to destroy American democracy.”

He also argued that he had the right to keep certain documents at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida, based on a 2012 court ruling that grants the president broad authority under the Presidential Records Act to designate personal records.

As reported by The Associated Press, Biden has been cautious in his comments about the case, as his DOJ targets Trump, his chief political rival and the frontrunner in the Republican presidential primary field.

Attorney General Merrick Garland has assigned a special counsel to investigate the classified documents found at Biden’s properties, but no charges have been filed against Biden thus far.
