NEW YORK —

Friday, October 27th:
*Bench Trial continues (Day 18) (@ 10am ET) – NY - New York vs. Donald J. Trump (76/now 77), Donald Trump, Jr. (45) & Eric Trump (38/now 39) & the Trump Organization, Inc. (Allen Weisselberg (75/now 76) & Jeffrey McConney) are being sued by Letitia James, the New York Attorney General, who is leading a civil investigation (which cannot result in criminal charges filed on 9/21/22) & has spent years looking at whether the company committed various acts of fraud over several decades. In the civil case, Ms. James has filed a lawsuit against Trump & two of his children accusing them of "astounding" fraud & deception.
New York is seeking $250 million in financial penalties & asked the court to ban Trump, Donald Trump Jr. & Eric Trump from serving as an officer or director in any corporation registered or licensed in New York. James also requested the court ban the former president & his business from acquiring real estate in New York or from applying for loans from any New York financial institution for five years. James's civil case accuses Trump of lying from 2011 to 2021 about asset values at the Trump Organization, as well as his own net worth, in order to obtain better terms from lenders & insurers.
Lawsuit against: Donald John Trump, Donald Trump, Jr, Eric Trump, Allen Weisselberg, Jeffrey McConney, The Donald J. Trump Revocable Trust, The Trump Organization, Inc., Trump Organization LLC, DJT Holdings LLC, DJT Holinds Managing Memer, Trump Endeavor 12 LLC, 401 North Wabash Venture LLC, Trump Old Post of Fice LLC, 40 Wall Street LLC & Seven Springs LLC.
All charges against Ivanka Trump were dismissed in June, 2023.
Bench Trial began on 10/2/23. (could last until 12/22/23 per Judge).
The lawsuit’s remaining 6 counts allege similar acts of fraud (that Trump inflated his assets on statements of financial condition that he submitted to banks & insurers for personal gain).
Judge Arthur F. Engoron presiding / NY State Attorney General Leticia James & senior enforcement counsel Kevin Wallace.
Defense attorney Christopher Kise & Jesus Suarez & Alina Habba for Trump, Weisselberg & the rest of the defendants for Trump Org. / Clifford Robert of Robert & Robert PLLC for Donald, Jr. & Eric.
Trump fined $5,000 for violating his gag order. Justice Engoron did *not* hold him in contempt & noted it was "first time" violation & credited Trump's attorney's arguments that it was "inadvertent." "Make no mistake: future violations, whether intentional or unintentional," will lead to "far more severe sanctions," including "possibly imprisoning" Trump.
The judge holds a hearing (10/26/23) & calls Trump to testify on his remarks. Trump was just on the stand & despite expressly finding his testimony was not credible, Judge Engoron fined him only $10k payable within 30 days.

10/26/23 Update: Manhattan judge released a written order on Thursday explaining why Trump's sworn testimony denying attacking a law clerk "rings hollow & untrue." That finding is central to Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron imposing a $10,000 fine on Trump for his second violation of a gag order protecting courtroom staff. Trump has claimed that he had been referring to his ex-fixer Michael Cohen as the "partisan" sitting "alongside" Engoron, but the judge said on Wednesday that excuse was "not credible." Trump's attorney Christopher Kise vowed on Thursday to appeal Engoron's order.

Trump family attorney Cliff Robert tried & failed in big screen fashion to secure what is called a "directed verdict" -- essentially urging the judge to make a hasty decision in favor of Trump solely based on Cohen's testimony on the witness stand. “Absolutely denied,” Engoron quipped. “This case has evidence, an incredible amount—evidence all over the place…That’s absurd, Mr. Robert.”
Bench Trial continues on Friday, 10/27/23.

Is this still on the docket? Motion on this date?

This is the first that I have seen this motion!

When I looked in the NY court site to find this case - it is no longer there....
Pink Question Mark Smiley
Strange!

I will add this to my hearings sheet. I do not think it effects the trial - as this is for a stay on the Judge's summary judgment & cancellation of his businesses.

Thanks for letting me know!

edited to add - can you give me a link to where you found this - not the link to the pdf.

On Saturday morning, the former president went on a wide-ranging tirade aimed at Engoron by writing: "I truly believe he is CRAZY, but certainly, at a minimum, CRAZED in his hatred of me."

In total Trump wrote, "My daughter, Ivanka, was released from this Fake Letitia James case by the Court of Appeals, but this Trump Hating, Unhinged Judge, who ruled me guilty before this Witch Hunt Trial even started, couldn’t care less about the fact that he was overturned. I also won on Appeal on Statute of Limitations, but he refuses to accept their decision. I truly believe he is CRAZY, but certainly, at a minimum, CRAZED in his hatred of me."

And his followers will not realize that while Ivanka is not a defendant, she is still a witness. And Trump knows that. jmo

If she is still involved in the organization, how did she escape prosecution based on statute of limitations?

Good question! I think she only recently re-entangled in the organization, after this lawsuit was made. So she is squeaking out of legal trouble by using calendars to her advantage, imo.

eta: that is my understanding, I don't know for sure.

In a ruling on Tuesday, the Appellate Division of New York’s Supreme Court dismissed the claims against Ivanka Trump, ruling that they were barred by the state’s statute of limitations. While claims over alleged wrongdoing after February 2016 were permissible, the court said, Ivanka Trump had stepped back from involvement in the Trump Organization and wasn’t accused in the lawsuit of any misconduct during that later time period.

The panel left it to a lower-court judge to determine whether other parts of the lawsuit would also be barred by the state’s statute of limitations.

Does he? He might be a bit “crazed”. IMO

I mean, he knows his followers likely aren't following the details, especially for this case, and will just believe whatever he says about Ivanka or anything else. imo
