Letitia James

In addition to four criminal indictments, former President Donald Trump is battling his share of civil lawsuits. Journalist E. Jean Carroll has sued Trump twice for defamation, and Trump's business activities have been a high priority for New York State Attorney General Letitia James.

In an article published on September 15, the Daily Beast's Jose Pagliery reports that James is moving full speed ahead with her civil fraud case against Trump. And the Beast has obtained a copy of a list that shows the ambitious roster of witnesses she has in mind.

Prosecutors intend to call Donald Trump and his three eldest children as witnesses in the sprawling $250 million business fraud lawsuit filed by New York attorney general Letitia James.

The attorney general's office proposed a list of 57 witnesses in recent appellate court filings that maps out the immense scope of the case, which includes not only Trump family members but some of the former president's most loyal bankers in a trial aimed at destroying his real estate empire, reported The Daily Beast.

Donald Trump's attorneys are attempting a legal gambit to help him wriggle out of the fraud lawsuit filed by New York Attorney General Letitia James, but experts are dubious that it will work, according to a report.

His attorneys have argued that Trump's business deals deemed as fraudulent by James took place so long ago they've fallen outside the statute of limitations, and an appellate court directed state Supreme Court Justice Arthur F. Engoron and the attorney general to determine exactly when those transactions took place, reported The Daily Beast.

Donald Trump boasts that his indictments will only help his re-election chances, but his social media posts suggest he's aware that might not be true.

The former president is scheduled to stand trial in special counsel Jack Smith's election interference case starting on March 4, the day before the Super Tuesday primary election in more than a dozen states, and he again claimed the charges had been brought in two federal courts, as well as Georgia and New York, by President Joe Biden to damage his re-election chances.

Hours after a new filing in New York Attorney General Letitia James' $250 million fraud lawsuit against ex-President Donald Trump claiming he "inflated his net worth by billions," the four-times indicted MAGA 2024 hopeful complained that he's the only United States president to lose money while in office, Rolling Stone reports.

Aside from Trump, James' lawsuit is also against two of his children — Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump — as well as the Trump organization and several officials, in an effort to ban the family from running business in the state of New York.

A judge overseeing New York attorney general’s $250 million civil lawsuit against Donald Trump and members of the former president’s family said Friday that the case would likely last close to three months, ABC News reports.

It's expected to start Oct. 2.

Donald Trump's attorneys asked a judge Friday to dismiss fraud claims as New York's attorney general accused him of inflating his assets by even more than her lawsuit alleges.

Attorney General Letitia James last week accused the former president of inflating his assets by up to $2.2 billion in a single year, but her office on Friday said that was merely a "conservative" estimate based on "undisputed" evidence and that Trump actually inflated his assets by up to $3.6 billion -- and possibly even more, reported The Messenger.

A New York judge quickly dismissed a last-minute request by Donald Trump to delay his bank and tax fraud trial in New York.

The former president's attorneys asked for a three-week halt so the judge can rule on requests from both New York attorney general Letitia James and Trump for a summary judgment in the $250 million civil suit, but Justice Arthur F. Engoron scrawled a nine-word response, reported The Daily Beast.
