Ex-President Donald Trump and his three eldest children are named in a list of witnesses to be called in the New York civil fraud case.
James is seeking at least $250million as well as an order prohibiting Trump from doing business in New York. Prosecutors with the attorney general’s office claim that Trump and his sons inflated their company property valuations with lenders and also diminished them to avoid paying higher taxes.on Tuesday, Judge Arthur Engoron determined that the ex-president submitted ‘fraudulent valuations’ of his assets and ordered the Trump Organization’s business certificates in the state to be canceled.
Eric Trump , Donald Trump Jr and Donald Trump are named as defendants while Ivanka Trump is listed as a witness Trump filed a motion to delay the fraud trial – but the First Judicial Department Appellate Division of the New York State Supreme Court denied it on Thursday. That means the trial will begin on Monday as scheduled.
‘We are ready for trial and look forward to presenting the rest of our case,’ stated James after the ruling. Others on the attorney general’s witness list include Cohen, former Trump Organization CFO Allen Weisselberg and Trump Organization controller Jeffrey McConney.Get in touch with our news team by emailing us at
