President Trump’s middle son must sit for a deposition by next month and the Trump Organization has to turn over documents in a civil fraud investigation by the New York attorney general, a state court judge ruled

Eric Trump and others who have done work for the Trump Organization must sit for depositions by next month as part ofl, a state court judge ruled Wednesday.

President Trump’s middle son, who had said he couldn’t be available until after the Nov. 3 election, must appear by Oct. 7, Justice Arthur Engoron said Wednesday. The judge also ordered the production of some documents about Trump Organization transactions sought by the attorney general and said he would make determinations about other documents sought by the attorney general’s office after reviewing them privately.

A lawyer for Eric Trump declined to comment. New York Attorney General Letitia James said the ruling “makes clear that no one is above the law, not even an organization or an individual with the name Trump.” The state attorney general’s office is examining whether the Trump Organization and the president improperly inflated the value of his assets on financial statements to obtain loans and get economic and tax benefits.

Last month, the attorney general’s office asked a judge to order the Trump Organization and others to comply with subpoenas. It said the seven subpoenas in question would give the office witness testimony and thousands of documents about specific Trump Organization properties. The office also asked the judge to order the testimony of Eric Trump, among others.

Patchythecat He’s going to take some sick days.

LOCK UP EVERYONE IN THE TRUMP CRIME FAMILY

Uday and Qusay.

I noticed he stopped asking where Hunter is.

Memorablelabia Lock them up

nana4MANY Oh baby!

Thought the NYT had established the fraud much earlier?

Why do working class folks like these people?

Ooooh daddy going to mad if you screw it up ....

HMMM any news on Joe and Hunter? LOL You guys cannot be taken seriously.

👏👏👏👏

Pucker up Eric Chump!

Funny how you report this the day we hear facts surrounding real Russian connections with Hunter Biden receiving foreign $

I’m sure the “president of law & order” will have no problem with his son fully complying here, right? 🙄

An anarchist state is about to make a Trump be accountable for his actions. Maybe daddy is next; then Melania; then Ivanka.

It’s hard to choose which Trump spawn is the most repulsive.

EricTrump Pull the Hillary trick ......I don’t recall, I don’t recall, or not to my recollection.

What convenient for him wanting to do it only after the election.

Awwwwww, DonaldJTrumpJr and you called everyone else out like daddy. Don’t drop the soap. Nevermind, drop it. Then, you’ll feel just like us Americans hurting due to Daddy’s 20,000 proven lies. And 15 deaths? He’s so stupid he can’t count 200,000-15. You’re in same boat

They have nothing to hide so of course they will just push it up to the Supreme Court to avoid testifying and releasing documents.

Would not surprise me to learn they over valued assets for borrowing and undervalued for taxes.

What about Hunter Biden!

Of course a NY State Judge would also try and undermine the Trumps

If Hillary got away with purging records...yeah good luck with that.

he will just say 'I can't recall' 100 times and there won't be any papers turned in....... Move on.... what's new? Corruption is rampant.

Hunter Biden did WHAT?!?

He will end up in a web of deceit and lies

This the same son that funneled money meant for children with cancer?

What if he pulls a Mueller and acid washes the documents?

And will be appealed tomorrow.

EricTrump Used to admire you for starting a charity at young age... until you joined your dad's campaign team & bombarded his opponent w/ baseless accusations... now, for this case, clear your name if you have nothing to hide... will make MAGA making sense. So far, it's not.

Even though Hunter Biden is involved in sex trafficking?

Hey EricTrump I’ll donate $50 to your favorite legal defense fund if you can finish this quote: O what a tangled web we weave...(no google, use that big brain of yours) Bonne Chance mon ami

God these Never Trumpers are so annoying.

Political. Shocker.

“Civil fraud “ investigation- yeah ok!

We don’t know specific facts about that case and it’s difficult to comment on that. However, the request by attorney general may be completely justified. What is outrageous is that Biden’s son, Hunter committed many crimes and he hasn’t been called for any depositions.

Wonderful & great !

and Trumps taxes?

This is political in nature and should be mapped out to post election to be correct on timing

HamdanMohammed this is my brother and this is a cancer patient You have a lot of God to give poors like us, but you help the poor people. It is request please help I am very poor and live in Pakistan I do not have enough money to treat my brother for God.Please help+923002724393

Is the middle son the equivalent of the middle finger?

This is clearly a hunt for a crime by the Trump hating NYC AG. How is that even legal? That’s an abuse of public office and should be charged as such!

Where's Hunter? MoscowHunter

A huge win for the U.S rule of law. Donald Trump is not above the law. His fight against turn over his tax returns is a shame for the office he represents. He is hiding something very big and criminal.

Lock him up!

hmmm.....why isn't a warrant being issued?

Ohhh bless his heart.

when civil war?

The dumber one of the 2 RussianAssets

JCBliss Um hunter biden?

...and when is JoeBiden’s son going to answer any questions? For that matter, when is Joe going to answer any questions?

NOW DO HUNTER BIDEN'S 3.5 MILLION WIRE TRANSFER FROM MOSCOW'S MAYOR

Never happen.
