The testimony accuses Trump of personally ordering that his net worth "go up" each year. But in court papers filed Tuesday afternoon, New York Attorney General Letitia James pushed hard to keep it in the trial. Neither Weisselberg nor Trump – both defendants in James' massive fraud lawsuit – have yet been asked to verify what they allegedly said in this game-of-telephone relay. But in sworn depositions before the attorney general's office, both Weisselberg and Trump have minimized their own involvement in the drafting of the net worth statements. James is seeking repayment of some $250 million she says Trump pocketed in interest-rate savings and other benefits.

NY AG Letitia James asked a Manhattan judge to fine Trump, his sons, and his lawyers $10,000 each. This would penalize Trump's team for wasting everyone's time with failed and "frivolous" arguments, she says. AdvertisementAdvertisement"The attorney general's motion is itself frivolous," Trump attorney Clifford Roberts told Insider Tuesday, declining to comment further. In fighting this proposed preliminary injunction, Trump once again raised some previously-failed arguments, including questioning James' standing and capacity to bring the case. In other financial filings, Trump allegedly lowballed his properties' worth to save on property taxes, the attorney general has said.

Trump gave long-winded answers while being deposed in NY AG Letitia James' financial-fraud lawsuit. "We're going to be here until midnight," one of the AG's lawyers worried out loud. "Chris," Wallace responded, "we're going to be here until midnight if your client answers every question with an eight-minute speech." Trump told the lawyer he paid off all the loans that he took out from banks to pay for his properties. When I get sued by you — fortunately, I don't need banks," Trump continued.

In a sworn deposition, Trump told New York officials he was too busy "saving millions of lives" to commit business fraud. AdvertisementAdvertisementDuring the Trump administration, Donald Trump's assets within the Trump Organization were transferred to a trust controlled by Eric Trump, Donald Trump Jr., and Allen Weisselberg, the company's chief financial officer at the time. The elder Trump was "focused on doing something much larger than the Trump Organization" at the time, Eric Trump said in his deposition. Otherwise, he has left his two eldest sons and other executives to run the company, Eric Trump said. Weisselberg, as well as the Trump Organization, were convicted in a criminal case over a payroll tax-fraud scheme last year.

New York Attorney General Letitia James wants to hear from Madison Square Garden Entertainment Corporation about the company's reported use of facial recognition technology at its venues. MSG Entertainment owns and operates venues across New York including Radio City Music Hall, Madison Square Garden and the Hulu Theater. "MSG Entertainment cannot fight their legal battles in their own arenas," James said Wednesday in a release announcing her letter. "Anyone with a ticket to an event should not be concerned that they may be wrongfully denied entry based on their appearance, and we're urging MSG Entertainment to reverse this policy." MSG Entertainment did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the letter.
On Thursday, a judge fined Trump $1 million over his "frivolous" lawsuit against Hillary Clinton. Friday, Trump dropped another lawsuit before the same judge, this one against NY AG Letitia James. He wrote that like the Clinton suit, the James suit "had all the telltale signs of being both vexatious and frivolous." On Thursday, Middlebrooks went further, issuing a scathing rebuke of Trump's legal tactics along with fining Trump and his lawyers for bringing the case. In that case, too, a New York state judge recently threatened money sanctions in response to what he called Trump's pattern of "borderline frivolous" litigation.
Donald Trump and the Trump Organization suffered a big legal setback in Manhattan on Thursday. In arguments before the judge hours before the ruling, Trump attorney Christopher Kise called the idea of monitoring "drastic" and likened it to "nationalizing" the company. In Thursday's 11-page ruling, Engoron credited the attorney general's lawsuit with having made a "compelling" case for fraud. In one, Engoron cited Trump's triplex penthouse at Trump Tower on Manhattan's Fifth Avenue. Trump claimed on 2011 financial documents that the triplex was worth $80 million, the judge noted, referring to the attorney general's evidence.
The statements were unsealed last week as part of NY AG Letitia James' fraud lawsuit against Trump. Trump told Sean Hannity the disclaimers absolve him of responsibility and the AG has "no case." "We have a disclaimer," Trump told the Fox News host. But Trump told Hannity none of that would matter because each Statement of Financial Condition begins with a warning. The opening paragraphs of the disclaimer for Donald Trump's 2012 Statement of Financial Condition (highlights added).
Mick Mulvaney, Donald Trump's former budget director, blasted NY AG Letitia James' Trump case. Now a never-Trumper, Mulvaney asks of James' lawsuit, 'Who's the victim here?' In August, Mulvaney called Trump the only Republican who could lose to a Democrat in the 2024 election. "They didn't lose money," Trump said. James' lawsuit alleges that Trump enriched himself by an undeserved $250 million by lying over the past decade to Deutche Bank and other lenders on financial documents.
Donald Trump coined a nickname for New York's AG after she sued him: Letitia 'Peekaboo' James. Trump had already called Letitia James "racist" for months prior to her suing him, in a not-so-veiled allusion to the AG being African American. "Racist A.G. Letitia "Peekaboo" James, the failed Gubernatorial candidate," Trump called the AG in a new Truth Social post. Trump fixer-turned-critic Michael Cohen doesn't like the odds on either of the leading peekaboo nickname-origin theories, one of which is X-rated and the other of which is deeply racist. Cohen didn't think much of the X-rated theory, floated around AG circles, which references some of the more graphic definitions of "peekaboo" from Urban Dictionary.
NY AG Letitia James said her office will ask federal prosecutors to probe Trump's business practices. James' office filed a sprawling civil lawsuit against the Trumps accusing them of fraud and seeking $250 million in penalties. The AG said she believes the conduct outlined "also violates federal criminal law," including bank fraud and false statements. AG Letitia James made the announcement earlier Wednesday after filing a sprawling civil lawsuit against Trump, his three eldest children, and the Trump Organization. James on Wednesday said her office believes the conduct outlined in the civil suit "also violates federal criminal law, including issuing false statements to financial institutions and bank fraud."
NY AG Letitia James sued Donald Trump, his three eldest kids, and Trump Organization on Wednesday. "This is going to be an eye-glazing battle" of experts and lawyers, before the lawsuit even goes to trial, one ex-prosecutor, Armen Morian, said of what's to come. He prosecuted the New York AG's case against Hank Greenberg, the one-time CEO of insurance giant AIG. That's the Manhattan judge who repeatedly ruled against Trump in the two-year lead-in to the AG's lawsuit. "She will pay for bringing such an aggressive, gargantuan, and unwieldy case," Morian predicted, "assuring that this case will move at a snail's pace, to the defendants' advantage."
New York Attorney General Letitia James' office sued Trump, his children, and his business. "Trump falsely inflated his net worth by billions of dollars to further enrich himself and cheat the system," James' office said. James on Wednesday accused the Trump Organization of issuing financial statements that were in "clear violation" of accepted accounting principles. Many of the lawsuit's fraud allegations center on 10 years of Trump's statements of financial condition. Mazars walked away from the statements after James' office found that they repeatedly "misstated objective facts."
Donald Trump lashed out at NY AG Letitia James on Truth Social after she filed a lawsuit against him. The lawsuit alleges fraud and names Trump, his business and his three eldest children. Trump nicknamed her "Peekaboo" and accused her — again — of being "racist." "Another Witch Hunt by a racist Attorney General, Letitia James, who failed in her run for Governor, getting almost zero support from the public, and now is doing poorly against Law & Order A.G. candidate, highly respected Michael Henry," he wrote. Trump has repeatedly called James "racist" in his long-running battle with her.
Former NY governor Andrew Cuomo has filed a 48-page ethics complaint against NY AG Letitia James. The Attorney Grievance Committee complaint accuses James of cooking up last year's sex harassment report. Cuomo seeks unspecified 'appropriate' discipline against James, who is standing behind her report. James' report had concluded that the then-governor harassed nearly a dozen women, including members of his own staff, state employees, and a state trooper. "Attorney General James, Joon Kim, and Anne Clark hold themselves to the highest ethical standards," James said in a statement responding to Cuomo's complaint.
NY AG Letitia James is about to sue Donald Trump and his real estate and golf resort business. Whatever James has up her sleeve after three long years of investigating the Trump Organization, it is now about to be revealed. A: James will sue the Trump Organization and Trump himself, the company's sole owner and beneficiary. Morian predicted James' lawsuit will closely mirror the allegations in a 115-page memorandum she filed in January. A: The New York-incorporated Trump Organization is an umbrella for some 500 other entities, many of them Delaware-registered LLCs.
