President Donald Trump’s company convinced a New York judge to reconsider an order that would have forced its former attorney to hand over hundreds of documents to state officials trying to determine whether the real-estate business falsely reported property values to get loans or tax benefits.

Last month, Justice Arthur Engoron ruled that state Attorney General Letitia James can enforce some subpoenas as part of her probe of the Trump Organization. But Engoron said Wednesday that his ruling had “overlooked” factors that warranted letting the judge review some of the documents first.
