FILE - In this image from video released by the House Select Committee, an exhibit shows Ivanka Trump, during a video interview with the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol at the hearing Thursday, June 16, 2022, on Capitol Hill in Washington. Former President Donald Trump’s civil business fraud trial is turning to the question of whether Ivanka will have to testify.
The civil case, brought by New York Attorney General Letitia James, accuses the former president, sons Donald Jr. and Eric, and the company of overstating the patriarch’s wealth for years on financial statements that were given to banks, insurers and others to help secure loans and deals.
Ivanka Trump’s lawyer argued in court papers that it’s unreasonable to make her take the stand. Noting that she’s no longer a defendant or a New York resident, attorney Bennet Moskowitz said the attorney general’s office was trying “to impose a heavy, unnecessary and improper burden on Ms. Trump to fill apparent gaps” in the state’s case.
