The civil action taken by the New York attorney general could result in a fine of $250m
Donald Trump in court: has railed against a legal case taken by authorities in New York which contends he overstated his wealth for years to the disadvantage of banks and insurance companies dealing with his company.
This followed a social media post in which he alleged that a female court official was the “girlfriend” of Chuck Schumer, the Democrat who is the majority leader in the US Senate.
But Trump has taken time away from the campaign trail – where he is the front-runner to secure the Republican Party nomination for the presidency – as well as from dealing with his other legal troubles, to attend court in New York on several occasions. Cohen testified last month that he had manipulated the values of Trump’s properties to match the figures that the former president wanted.However, Cohen later came under pressure from the defence over previous statements in which he said Trump had not directed him to inflate values.
