Trump to face sworn deposition in New York lawsuit as legal troubles mount
Chris McGreal in New York -
The New York attorney general’s office was expected to begin questioning Donald Trump and two of his children over allegations of financial fraud today after the former president failed in his legal bid to block what he has called a politically motivated “witch hunt”, though the deposition has been postponed following the death of Ivana Trump.
Trump and his two eldest children, Ivanka and Donald Jr, have been summoned to give sworn depositions after state attorney general, Letitia James, said a three-year civil investigation uncovered evidence that the Trump Organization routinely inflated the value of properties, including office blocks, apartment buildings and golf courses, in order to obtain loans at favorable rates and to claim tax breaks.
The AG’s office alleges that the former president’s Trump Tower apartment block was recorded as being three times as large as it really was as part of the fraud.
