That is the opinion of former litigator and current MSNBC legal analyst Lisa Rubin, who claimed there is more than enough evidence for the judge to dismiss the case against New York Attorney General Letitia James for bank fraud out of hand, but she is holding off until Monday where she will take up both the James case and the indictment of former FBI Director James Comey.
