Ivanka Trump is set to testify Wednesday in the $250 million fraud case against her dad and brothers — after her failed bid to avoid the witness stand.
The former first daughter’s testimony will round out questioning of Trump family members — which began with Don Jr. and Eric last week and the former president on Monday.
Questioning of Ivanka by the New York Attorney General’s Office — which is prosecuting the case — is expected to last from roughly 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Trump’s team’s cross-examination of her could last through Thursday morning.
Ivanka, 41, tried to get out of showing up for the Manhattan Supreme Court trial but Justice Arthur Engoron — and an later an appeals court — rejected the request.
The businesswoman and mother of three was previously a defendant alongside her family but was dismissed from the case in June by an appeals court which found the allegations against her fell outside of the statute of limitations.
