Probably. That’s all the prosecution proposed, and Merchan would show bias if he raised the stakes. Merchan will likely propose a steeper fine for future violations.
I believe you’re right. It’s pretty ridiculous how cheap it is, though. They really ought to bring charges for witness tampering and intimidation, but I doubt that will happen.
Yeah, New York caps contempt charges at $1000 per violation, and/or up to 30 days in jail. And no judge wants to be the first one to throw him in jail for contempt. So he just keeps getting small fines which he is (at least on paper, but that’s what the entire trial is focused on) easily capable of paying.

Most likely $1,000 per violation, or $3,000. Seems like a cheap cost to slander and intimidate witnesses against you.

How many bibles does he need to sell for each contempt charge?
Jail up to 30 days per incident is possible, but realistically it needs to be gradually assessed after fines first
And stinky diaper man-child is really hoping for a couple of days jail time he can fund raise off
To add: someone had the brilliant idea to sentence him to 40 hours community service in liew of 30 days jail time
Oh to see that fucker wearing an orange jumpsuit, picking up trash by the side of the road!
I vote we lock him up in a basement cell and brick it over.
For the love of god, Montresor!

That’s a bit harsh for masturbating while accidentally still on a zoom call.
Getting fucking SLaMmEd in a newspaper. This behavior will be absolutely fucking noted by “an expert” who describes possible “legal outcomes.” Gottem.
