Letitia James won a $454 million judgment against Trump, his penalty for a decade of fraud. She and Trump are now fighting over her claims that he withheld evidence from her fraud probe. "The Court is well within its authority to determine if Defendants and their counsel facilitated that perjury by withholding of incriminating documents," James argued in Tuesday night's letter. AdvertisementAt a hearing in April of 2022, he compared getting Trump's documents to "pulling teeth." Out of some 900,000 documents turned over, only ten were "custodial" Trump documents, meaning business files in the former president's direct custody.

On their way to the US Supreme Court, Trump's lawyers would first need to exhaust their New York state appellate options. AdvertisementNew York Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron presided over closing arguments in the Trump civil fraud trial. Shannon Stapleton/ReutersThrowing the case to the US Supreme Court could, at the least, delay the imposition of penalties, Scholl said. It's unlikely the US Supreme Court would throw out New York's executive law in its entirety, he predicted. But the court could quite possibly pare back, at least in Trump's case, its most severe penalties.

Trump's Stormy Daniels "hush money" is the subject of a Manhattan grand jury, The NY Times reports. Ex-Manhattan financial crimes prosecutors say Trump risks felony-level state records-fraud charges. The first requirement to proving the highest level of falsifying business records would be showing that records were indeed falsified in the business records of an enterprise. Cohen has admitted being the bag man who delivered $130,000 in "hush money" on the brink of the 2016 election. Each check could be a separate "falsifying business records" charge, Moscow said.
A judge could rule Weisselberg violated the deal because jurors, by their verdict, found he lied. He has been promised a five-month jail sentence as part of his August plea deal. But that deal required Weisselberg, 75, to testify truthfully against former President Donald Trump's real-estate company, where he's worked since the 1970s. "Weisselberg says over and over, 'I, together with the Trump Organization,'" Florence, now in private practice, noted of his guilty plea. Trump Organization lawyers have already promised to appeal the verdict itself.
NY law limits the penalties Trump faces to $250K per tax count and $10K per crime. But the conviction could embolden the Manhattan DA's office to pursue more cases against the former president and his company, insiders say. The tax-fraud case against the Trump Organization has been that probe's only indictment to date. That victory — and the apparent willingness of Manhattan residents to hit hard — may embolden the DA's office to go after Trump himself. "He has 500 subsidiaries" he said of the Trump Organization.
