He's really going to be racking up the Frequent Felon air mileage...

Strange though that Trump tried to settle this numerous times with James considering it's a "political legal persecution" case. yes?

LOL

 

Witch judge do you think is on Trump's mind as he tries to fall asleep?

BREAKING: New York Supreme Court Justice Arthur F. Engoron has just ordered Trump’s accounting firm Whitley Penn to hand over crucial tax documents to AG Letitia James. The a judge has reportedly grown exasperated at Trump’s delay tactics. This decision is significant because Trump’s accounting firm has previously said it would not comply with any New York request for documents UNLESS the courts intervened. We’ll they just did. The order will now force the accounting firm to turn over records—and get a certified public accountant to answer investigators’ questions. The documents are reportedly at the center of AG Letitia James' $250 million fraud lawsuit. Today is another VERY bad day for Donald Trump!

 

Funny how he shied away from personal racist insults, eh?

Let’s unpack this. He admits his company’s value is greater than what is indicated in the financial statement (produced by him). It’s literally the crux of Letitia James’ case against him.

I wonder if he "made his points" by crying and pleading the 5th all day.

 

New York AG Sues Trump Family for Financial Fraud

Looks like Soros is getting his money's worth.

 

Yep, when you can't argue the facts you bring up Soros.

 

I wondered when someone was going to make the comparison:

 

Remember Trump devotees, he tried to settle this case and failed.
Why on earth would he settle? lol


'Politics New York attorney general's Trump lawsuit "ready for trial," her office says'
Source: CBS News

"New York Attorney General Letitia James' office says it is ready to proceed with a trial stemming from its $250 million lawsuit claiming former President Donald Trump, two of his children and his company engaged in widespread fraud. "The case is ready for trial," wrote Kevin Wallace, senior enforcement counsel for the office, in a filing Monday.

The September 2022 lawsuit accused members of the Trump family and Trump Organization executives of orchestrating an extensive fraudulent scheme related to valuations of property and Trump's personal financial statements. Allegations against Ivanka Trump have since been dismissed by a New York appeals court.

The lawsuit is seeking $250 million and sanctions that would effectively cease the company's operations in New York. The Trumps and the company have vehemently denied wrongdoing. Trump, his sons Eric and Donald Trump Jr., and Ivanka Trump have all sat for depositions in the case. During Trump's first deposition, in August 2022, before the lawsuit was filed, he invoked his Fifth Amendment right against self incrimination more than 400 times.

He was deposed again in April, that time answering questions in James' New York City office for about eight hours. The case is scheduled to go to trial on Oct. 2, a date the the judge in the case, Arthur Engoron, previously described as "set in stone." Engoron has rejected repeated attempts by Trump attorneys to push that date back'.

Be there... will be wild...

 

Reasonably big ruling in this case today...

SNIP
A judge has ruled that Donald Trump committed fraud for years while building the real estate empire that catapulted him to fame and the White House.

Judge Arthur Engoron, ruling Tuesday in a civil lawsuit brought by New York’s attorney general, found that the former president and his company deceived banks, insurers and others by massively overvaluing his assets and exaggerating his net worth on paperwork used in making deals and securing financing.

Those tactics crossed a line and violated the law, the judge said, rejecting Trump’s contention that a disclaimer on the financial statements absolved him of any wrongdoing.

To quote the great bard Billie Eilish...... DUH!

I guess we can now officially add business fraud to his current list of titles (sexual abuser, seditionist......).

Punishment phase of trial begins next week, I believe...

 

Trump will say he'd never do business in NY/NYC again and then go on to slam Biden/Adams blah,blah.

snips:

"Engoron ordered that some of Trump’s business licenses be rescinded as punishment, making it difficult or impossible for them to do business in New York, and said he would continue to have an independent monitor oversee the Trump Organization’s operations.

"Engoron’s ruling, in a phase of the case known as summary judgment, resolves the key claim in James’ lawsuit, but six others remain".

"Engoron is slated to hold a non-jury trial starting Oct. 2 before deciding on those claims and any punishments he may impose. James is seeking $250 million in penalties and a ban on Trump doing business in New York, his home state. The trial could last into December, Engoron has said".

"Those tactics crossed a line and violated the law, the judge said, rejecting Trump’s contention that a disclaimer on the financial statements absolved him of any wrongdoing."
