That’s what fraud is. When someone is damaged.
It’s why several business have said they are leaving New York and the governor sent out a statement.
Like or dislike Trump. Using the court systems to attack a political opponent is terrifying. That’s what a fascist leader does. They weaponize the court system.

These are good questions. Here are some more:
Who used false statements in business? Who intended to falsify business records? Who intended to conspire to falsify business records? Who intended to issue a false financial statement? Who intended to conspire to issue a false financial statement? Why are any of these things illegal in New York?

Irrelevant. Fraud requires a victim. Who was the victim?
