I'm not seeing this covered in any major outlets. Anyone got a reliable source?
MSN has it:
The bond appears to be fine, it's the attached paperwork that was rejected.
"The cause for the rejection, according to the New York County Supreme Court website, is because the requisite paperwork lacked a current financial statement.
. . .
"It is also missing the name of his attorney-in-fact. Trump will have a chance to resubmit his request."
So... not "filled with filing errors"... It was returned for correction because it missed an attachment, probably on purpose to conceal Trump's property values. The original posts sounds like the actual bond issue failed somehow, but it was just the court asking for more details.
The bond is rejected and needs to be refilled.
The bond was successfully issued. The court filling was returned so that they could add one attachment.
When you say the bond was successfully issued, it doesn't mean much if it's not accepted. If you read thr court's note there is a list of items he must provide.
To eliminate the semantics: Bond good filing bad.
I saw someone ask a question that interests me. If he submits his original financial statement, is that fraud? If he submits a revised statement, is that an admission of guilt?
I'm going to say it probably won't matter at all, but it amuses me to think he might have crafted a perjury trap for himself.
It's not his financial statement they want, it's the bond company's.
If he submits a revised statement, is that an admission of guilt?
He's already been found guilty, admitting it at this point shouldn't matter legally. IANAL
Oh so he's totally going to jail now right?
Right??
Aaaaaany second now...
This gif gives me blue balls
As does the DOJ.
Justice edging
Not one of the criminal cases, so, no.
No it just means they have to re do the paperwork
But the darkest humor in this are the mistakes that keep being made by his team

They were also hired because they're conventionally attractive women, and they probably signed an NDA saying they won't mention where he grabs them.
He didn't include his current financial statement, lol
Trust me ~~comrade~~ bro.
Purposefully.
There’s nothing to gain from this, though. If he fails within the deadline to post his bond he just gets his appeal denied. Hopefully. At last.
I heard people say something similar about the last deadline before it got extended and reduced
So if he just keeps leaving things, are they going to just keep sending it back?
Presumably they would continue charging penalty interest if they aren’t accepting the bond.
Also the deadline is what, Friday? Sounds like another delay tactic so he can scream about the rigged courts not accepting his bond if the deadline passes and James starts collecting on the debt.
Was it ten calendar days or ten working days?
Doesn't even matter does it? They will just keep breaking the rules for him. Justice is not only blind but hog tired or seems.

Dear white Jesus and Santa, please let trump file a fraudulent financial report as part of his bond filing. It would make me so happy. I promise to be good this year.
Like everything else.
Meaningless.
Well it means Trump's financials will become public. Meaningless to you, but not to him it seems.
As said elsewhere, the bond company needs to share their financials. So not the Trump financials. This to ensure that the bond company has enough money for the bond.
Yeah, this boils down to "does the bond company have the money and was the bond issuer authorized to issue the bond"
It will get interesting if they for whatever reason can't provide these two formalities, but I'm not holding my breath.
Won't happen.
This is who Trump surrounds himself with, opportunists who smell a buck and who know they don’t have what it takes to make this kind of money honestly, so they just wing it.
