Die Details
A New York state appeals court judge has temporarily halted the fraud lawsuit filed by New York Attorney General Letitia James against former U.S. President Donald Trump and his family business.
The trial, which was scheduled to begin on Oct. 2, is now on hold.
The trial judge overseeing the case, Justice Arthur Engoron, and Letitia James are now facing a lawsuit initiated by Donald Trump.
Trump accuses them of defying a court order that could narrow the lawsuit.
Appeals court Justice David Friedman has granted an interim stay of the trial.
The matter has been referred to a five-judge panel, which expects to rule in the last week of September.
Depending on the appeals court’s decision, the trial could still begin on Oct. 2.
However, the stay does not apply to a scheduled Sept. 22 hearing before Engoron on both sides’ motions for summary judgment.
Letitia James aims for a ruling that Trump’s financial statements were fraudulent.
The defendants seek the dismissal of most, if not all, of the attorney general’s claims.
Engoron has previously stated that the trial could last until near Christmas.
Lawyers representing Donald Trump did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
Letitia James expressed confidence in their case, stating that they will be prepared for trial.
The lawsuit was filed by Letitia James in September 2022 after a three-year probe.
It alleges that Trump and his associates misled lenders and insurers by providing false information about his assets and net worth.
Letitia James is seeking a $250 million fine.
She also aims to bar Trump and his sons, Donald Trump Jr and Eric Trump, from leading the Trump Organization.
In a previous ruling, the appeals court stated that statutes of limitations may preclude Letitia James from suing over claims that arose before July 13, 2014, or Feb. 6, 2016.
It is up to Engoron to determine which claims can proceed.
Donald Trump has consistently denied any wrongdoing.
He has referred to Letitia James’ case as a part of a Democratic “witch hunt.”
Engoron has previously dismissed the “witch hunt” argument.
He asserted that it does not justify a dismissal and criticized certain defense arguments as “borderline frivolous.”
The above information is based on multiple sources and aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the current status and details of the ongoing lawsuit.
