Francisco Franco still dead; Trump still unsentenced. Contact Judge Merchan et al. to demand justice

As for "Francisco Franco still dead", which is true, see the Saturday Night Live meme referenced at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalissimo_Francisco_Franco_is_still_dead . -- Now for Francisco Trumpo: as in a recent post of mine, I note that The Hill says, "Judge delays Trump immunity decision in NY hush money case", https://thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/4985765-trump-immunity-hush-money/ ,

"A New York judge delayed a Tuesday decision on whether President-elect Trump’s conviction can withstand the Supreme Court’s presidential immunity ruling[;] Juan Merchan agreed to freeze the case until Nov. 19[,] enabling prosecutors to respond to Trump’s demand the case be dismissed entirely now that he is president-elect. [etc.]"

If you think the case shouldn't be dismissed, and Trump should get the maximum 4-year jail sentence (maybe after his presidency), or whatever, these e-mail addresses should work, to contact Judge Juan Merchan, Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg, and Bragg's counsel Matthew Colangelo, to advise courage, not being intimidated by Trump, and not putting Trump above the law,

jmerchan@nycourts.gov

bragga@dany.nyc.gov

colangelom@dany.nyc.gov

I'll even give a sample template (but tweak it as you like, or better, write your wholly original letter),

Dear Judge Merchan [or DA Alvin Bragg and ADA Matthew Colangelo]:

Please do not give Donald Trump immunity for his 34 felony convictions in the Stormy Daniels hush-money case. He deserves a maximum sentence, 4 years in prison, for his dishonest actions designed to keep the American people from knowing about his extramarital affair before the 2016 election. Thank you,

Sincerely,
[you]

If you want to send a paper letter (express mail may be advisable):

The Honorable Juan Merchan
Supreme Court of the State of New York
County of New York: Part 59
100 Centre Street New York, NY 10013

DA Alvin Bragg and ADA Matthew Colangelo
New York County District Attorney’s Office
One Hogan Place, New York, NY 10013


Finally, see https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/25289004-merchan-stay-decision for copies of original court documents, if wanted.
Too, I see this phone number for Merchan's courtroom, 646-386-4059, if you want to leave a message for him.
And this number for Bragg's main office (not his personal one), 212.335.9000.
