An appeals court rejected Trump’s request to delay trial in his $250 million lawsuit brought against The Trump Organization by the New York attorney general.
An appeals court denied former President Donald Trump’s request to delay trial in the civil lawsuit filed against him by New York Attorney General Letitia James, giving the green light for the case to begin proceedings on Monday.
New York Judge Arthur Engoron ruled on Tuesday that the former president, alongside his sons Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, are liable for fraud in the overvaluation of several Trump properties attached to the ex-president’s real estate empire, The Trump Organization. The decision also rescinded Trump’s business licenses as punishment, potentially threatening his ownership of several properties.
