"Trump's New York Business Fraud Verdict Delayed to Mid-February"

A verdict in the civil fraud case brought by New York Attorney General Letitia James against Donald Trump and his company could come by mid-February, with Judge Arthur Engoron poised to issue a ruling on fraud claims. The attorney general seeks $370 million in disgorgement for ill-gotten gains, while a court-appointed monitor has flagged errors and inconsistencies in Trump Organization's financial disclosures. Trump's attorney has criticized the monitor's report, and Engoron has already ruled that Trump engaged in fraud, ordering the dissolution of his business empire pending appeal.
