The New York civil fraud trial of former President Donald Trump and his company is back on track to start Monday after a state appeals court lifted a temporary stay of the case. Trump, the Trump Organization and his two adult sons, Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, are accused by James of misstating the values of multiple real estate assets. That argument stemmed from a separate appeals court decision in June, which removed Ivanka Trump as a defendant in James' case. The appeals court said in that ruling that the specific allegations involving her related to matters that fell outside a six-year statute of limitations. James' list shows she plans to call 28 witnesses, including Trump, Donald Trump Jr. , Eric Trump and Ivanka Trump.

The judge described how Trump, his adult sons Donald Jr. and Eric, the Trump Organization and other defendants made up valuations and inflated Trump's net worth to suit their business needs. Trump and the other defendants have argued that they never committed fraud, and that the challenged transactions were profitable. Engoron said James submitted "conclusive evidence" that Trump had overstated his net worth by between $812 million and $2.2 billion. Engoron's decision does not automatically mean James' fraud case will go to trial next Monday. Trump has sued to delay the trial, accusing Engoron and James of ignoring the appeals court order to narrow the case.

James has accused Trump of repeatedly lying in financial statements to obtain better terms on loans and insurance. Last week, Trump accused James of ignoring the decision and Engoron of refusing to implement it, and said the trial should be delayed. She said even a brief delay "would likely wreak havoc" on the trial and other trials that Trump faces. James' lawsuit seeks to bar Trump and his adult sons Donald Jr. And Eric from running businesses in New York.

Former U.S. President Donald Trump departs from Trump Tower to give a deposition to New York Attorney General Letitia James who sued Trump and his Trump Organization, in New York City, U.S., April 13, 2023. According to the court spokesman, appeals court Justice David Friedman granted an interim stay of the trial, and referred the matter to a five-judge panel, which expects to rule in the last week of September. The trial could still begin on Oct. 2 depending on how the appeals court, known as the First Department, rules. Friedman's stay does not apply to a scheduled Sept. 22 hearing before Engoron on both sides' motions for summary judgment, which can proceed as planned, the court spokesman said. She is seeking a $250 million fine, and to bar Trump and his sons Donald Trump Jr and Eric Trump from leading the family business, the Trump Organization.

In 26 days, Trump, his sons, and his real-estate empire are scheduled in a civil fraud trial in New York. On Wednesday, a judge rejected Trump's bid to delay the trial as "completely without merit." The decision follows legal filings in which New York's attorney general seeks to fine Trump and his co-defendants $10,000 each for trying to delay the trial through "frivolous conduct." A Manhattan judge's handwritten response to Donald Trump's latest bid to delay his October 2, 2023, civil business-fraud trial. His decisions on the attorney general's request for $10,000 sanctions, and for at least a partial trial victory, are pending.

DeSantis' camp on Tuesday announced that it was ousting campaign manager Generra Peck and bringing in two top outside strategists. Replacing Peck, who is now the campaign's chief strategist, is James Uthmeier, previously the governor's chief of staff. Campaign insiders and donors say the replacement of Peck is unlikely to quell anxiety about the direction of DeSantis' campaign. NEW CAMPAIGN MANAGER, SAME STRATEGYUthmeier's appointment had been in the works for weeks, said one person close to the process. "With him, the governor has basically imposed his will in Tallahassee," said another person close to Uthmeier, referring to Florida's capital city.

ESPN has held preliminary discussions with the NFL, NBA and MLB about a variety of new partnerships and investment structures, the people said. Spokespeople for ESPN, the NFL and MLB declined to comment. The NBA and Disney have broached many potential structures around a renewal of media rights, the people said. Iger said last week in an interview with CNBC's David Faber that Disney is looking for a strategic partner for ESPN as it prepares to transition the sports network to streaming.

Michigan Rep. John James endorsed former President Donald Trump's 2024 campaign on Tuesday. James said at the time that Trump "can't be trusted" and is "not fit to lead." When Trump seemingly called for the "termination" of the US Constitution in December, James condemned Trump in stark terms. "A man who would suspend the Constitution can't be trusted," James said at the time, according to local Michigan news outlet WLNS. Unlike many of the Republicans who have already backed Trump's campaign, James represents a swing district, and is likely to face a tough challenge from Democrats next year.

The attorneys general of New York and California opened a joint investigation into allegations of workplace discrimination and pay inequities at the N.F.L. offices in both states in response to a report in The New York Times in February 2022 on the treatment of women who work for the league. employees who described a stifling and demoralizing corporate culture that drove some women to quit in frustration and which left many feeling brushed aside. “No matter how powerful or influential, no institution is above the law, and we will ensure the N.F.L.

The measure passed, and shortly after midnight on Nov. 24, when it took effect, Ms. Carroll sued Mr. Trump. On Tuesday, that case is scheduled for trial in Federal District Court in Manhattan, where, after years of accusations and angry denials traded in articles, interviews and social media, a jury will be charged with determining the truth. The proceeding will take place amid a barrage of legal cases aimed at Mr. Trump, who is running to regain the presidency, and arguing that the suits and investigations are meant to drag him down. Mr. Trump, 76, has denied that he raped Ms. Carroll, 79, and has attacked her repeatedly in public statements and on social media, both in office and after he left. In 2019, he called Ms. Carroll’s allegation “totally false” and said he could not have raped her because she was not his “type.”

Matt Gaetz was one of the last holdouts in backing challengers to Kevin McCarthy's speakership bid. Gaetz told CNN that he "ran out of things" to ask for by the end of the public leadership fight. However, by the 14th ballot — when the vast majority of the conservative holdouts had finally moved behind McCarthy — Gaetz shifted his vote from Jordan and instead recorded himself as "present." Rep. Mike Rogers of Alabama after the 14th round of voting then confronted Gaetz and appeared to lunge at the Floridian over the vote. CNN reported that Gaetz on Monday had asked McCarthy to chair a House Armed Services subcommittee, but the GOP leader had declined the request.

REUTERS/Andrew Kelly/Companies Trump Organization Inc FollowNEW YORK, Nov 3 (Reuters) - A New York judge on Thursday ordered that an independent watchdog be appointed to oversee the Trump Organization before a civil fraud case by the state's attorney general against Donald Trump's company goes to trial. Last month, James asked the Manhattan-based judge to appoint an independent monitor to halt ongoing fraud at the company and keep the Trumps from transferring assets out of her reach. In a statement, the Trump Organization objected to "political persecution" by James, a Democrat, ahead of the Nov. 8 midterm elections. He said James had no legal authority to challenge how Trump valued his properties, calling it a private matter between Trump's company and its lenders and insurers. The Trump Organization manages hotels, golf courses and other real estate around the world.

REUTERS/David 'Dee' Delgado/File PhotoNEW YORK, Oct 27 (Reuters) - Donald Trump's namesake company urged a New York judge to reject a demand by the state's attorney general to appoint a monitor to oversee its financial practices, after she accused it of "staggering" fraud. "What the (attorney general) really seeks is a vague order justifying her assertion of control via a 'monitor' of the business affairs of her political adversary," wrote Alina Habba, a lawyer for the company and Trump. The attorney general has said a monitor would help serve "the substantial public interest in curbing fraudulent and lawful conduct." While the case does not involve criminal charges, James said Trump repeatedly violated several state criminal laws and may have violated federal criminal law. The case is New York v Trump et al, New York State Supreme Court, New York County, No.

"Donald Trump, Jr. testified that he has no understanding how the Statement is compiled each year," the filing continues. "Donald Trump, Jr. testified that he was aware of an accounting firm being involved but otherwise had no knowledge of the process or mechanics of the Statements' preparation."

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez grilled former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen about Trump's alleged fraud. The New York attorney general's office announced Wednesday that it had asked federal prosecutors to investigate Trump's business practice regarding possible federal crimes.
