Fraud must be proved by “clear, cogent, and convincing evidence”. The judge in Trump's case applied the lower 'preponderance of the evidence' standard in order to find Trump guilty.
“Clear, cogent, and convincing evidence” denotes a quantum of evidence or degree of proof greater than a mere preponderance, but something less than proof beyond a reasonable doubt.
