"Delay in Verdict: Trump's New York Fraud Trial Fate Hangs in the Balance"

The verdict in Donald Trump's $370m fraud trial has been delayed until early to mid-February, with the judge citing a need for extra time. The delay comes after a letter from the court-appointed monitor overseeing the Trump Organization's financial reports raised concerns about deficiencies and potential misstatements in the financial information reviewed. The trial revolves around allegations of Trump inflating the value of his assets on financial documents, with the New York attorney general's office seeking a $370m fine and a ban on Trump doing business in New York.

Trump judge discredits expert witness in fraud trial

The judge presiding over Donald Trump's civil fraud trial criticized the credibility of the former president's star witness, New York University accounting professor Eli Bartov, stating that he had "lost all credibility" by defending apparent misstatements in Trump's financial documents. The judge suggested that Bartov's testimony was influenced by the large sum of money he was paid by Trump's team. This comes as Trump's fifth attempt for a directed verdict in his favor was denied by the judge. The trial, which accuses Trump and his adult sons of inflating his net worth and assets, is nearing its end, and the judge will soon determine the penalties Trump should face.

Trump's Testimony: Unraveling His Business Empire and Answering for Fraud

Former President Donald Trump is set to testify in a $250 million civil fraud trial brought by New York Attorney General Tish James, accusing him of inflating his net worth through falsified documents. Trump will likely face questions about his involvement with the financial statements and whether he directed the creation of fraudulent documents. He may also invoke his right against self-incrimination, but doing so in a civil trial carries the risk of an adverse inference. Trump's testimony could potentially impact his pending criminal case in New York, which involves similar allegations of fraudulent conduct. He may also implicate his adult sons in the case. Trump has previously criticized the judge overseeing the trial, but his remarks on the witness stand are expected to be limited to the questions asked.
