38. But the agreement with the escrow account nullifies that tactic

The agreement with the escrow account says the money would be released to Carroll if SCOTUS declined to hear the case, which has happened.

All it will take is the lower court judge to order the release of the funds.

My money is on Trump suing the escrow company to block the release of funds.
