(TargetLiberty.org) – Last week, Ivanka Trump’s lawyers filed a motion pushing for the subpoena that would have her testify in the civil fraud case against her family to be dismissed. As her lawyers pointed out the case against Ivanka Trump which was filed by Letitia James, the New York Attorney General has already been dismissed.
If Ivanka Trump does end up testifying in the suit against her father, Donald Trump, and two brothers Donald Jr. and Eric, her testimony could potentially carry a lot of weight while also leading to her getting implicated in the case again. James alleged in the civil fraud case that the Trump Organization and Trump family had intentionally inflated their assets by as much as $2.2 billion in order to increase their net worth by receiving more favorable bank terms for loans and other business deals.
In June, Ivanka was dismissed from the claims in the civil suit as the statute of limitations had expired. The former President had his sons have maintained that the claims of the suit are inaccurate and that they have not committed any wrongdoings. Donald Trump has also argued that the case was only brought against him in an attempt to ruin his reputation and hurt his chances of winning the 2024 presidential election as he is currently the frontrunner in the GOP primary.
Bennet Moskowitz, the lawyer for Ivanka Trump, noted in the October 19 motion that Ivanka Trump should not be required to take the stand as she was not deposed, has not been part of the Trump Organization since 2016, and has not resided in New York in close to seven years.
