New York AG will continue to pursue $454 million civil fraud judgment against Trump
Donald Trump's impending inauguration does not impact his $454 million civil fraud judgment, the New York attorney general's office told Trump's lawyer Tuesday.
Summary
New York AG Letitia James will continue pursuing a $454M civil fraud judgment against Donald Trump despite his presidential return.
A 2023 ruling found Trump and his sons inflated his net worth to secure favorable loans, with interest raising the owed amount to $490M.
Trump has appealed, but the AG argues civil litigation does not interfere with presidential duties.
Trump's lawyer urged dismissal for national unity, citing dropped criminal cases, but James rejected the request.
A decision on the appeal is pending.
