Trump, Children Appeal Decision Requiring N.Y. Probe Testimony

Former President Donald Trump and two of his children asked a New York state appeals court to throw out a judge’s decision forcing them to testify in Attorney General Letitia James’s civil probe of their family real estate business.

Trump, Donald Trump Jr. and Ivanka Trump were ordered earlier this month to sit for depositions in James’s investigation into potentially fraudulent asset valuations at the Trump Organization. The judge rejected their argument that the attorney general’s subpoenas should be blocked because she was improperly trying to gather evidence for a separate criminal case being led by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.
