Day 4 highlights: Ex-Trump executive grilled in court as former president skips
Get live updates of Donald Trump's fraud trial with cross-examination of a former accountant after Trump left the courthouse and bashed the judge, Letitia James and the legal system Wednesday.www.nbcnews.com
As the trial proceeds in court, Judge Engoron issued a ruling to make sure the former president and other defendants in the case are complying with his order last week canceling their New York business certificates.
The judge formally extended the deadline for Trump's team and the AG's office to submit suggestions for an independent receiver to oversee the dissolution of the companies by Oct. 26. He also directed the Trump team to turn over a full list of those companies, and to inform the monitor already overseeing the Trump Organization's financial transactions about any third parties who have ownership interests.
The order also directs Trump's team to inform the monitor in advance of any applications for new business certificates and any transfer of assets.
Judge Engoron is wasting no time. No time at all.
3 weeks for Trump Inc to name someone he doesn't own to control all that will be left of his New York companies.
Monitor to get a full list of Trump companies ( !) which will probably be very helpful for the IRS.
And the icing on the cake is this monitor will also be watching Trump Inc's dealings with their creditors, who may finally have a chance to file claims that will not be ignored.
No wonder the screaming yam ran away out of town to hide yesterday.
