    Under NYS law he could still send him to jail even before sentencing as retroactive punishment for the gag order violations too. It’s not either a fine or jail, it can be both. And he can chose to do it at anytime during proceedings like at the end if it meant the conviction stage would be expedited. This cannot be appealed as it’s a bench judgement for being out of order. It would likely just be for a day or something.
