The appeals court has questioned how this law, which is a consumer protection law, applies to private business transactions between equally sophisticated parties, where there were no losses on the part of either party - a.k.a. no victims.
The judges asked if the District Attorney - who ran for office on a promise to go after Donald Trump, personally - had overstepped the intent and scope of the law being applied.
Judges who think this case was kosher wouldn't ask questions like this.
If they throw this fraud case out, and they do it before the election in November, doing so will validate Trump's claim that they judicial system has been set against him.
Which, of course, is the case.
