Ivanka Trump’s testimony at her father’s New York civil fraud trial is being delayed until next week so there is sufficient time for her to be questioned. A judge announced Monday that former President Donald Trump’s eldest daughter will now testify on Nov. 8.

Former President Donald Trump’s civil business fraud trial is turning to the question of whether Ivanka will have to testify.

Ivanka Trump’s lawyer, Bennet Moskowitz, told Engoron at a hearing Friday that state lawyers “just don’t have jurisdiction over her.” One of Donald Trump’s lawyers, Christopher Kise, argued that state lawyers “just want another free-for-all on another of President Trump’s children.” During her years at the Trump Organization, Ivanka Trump was involved in negotiating and securing financing for various properties, including a lease and loan for a Washington hotel and loans for a Doral, Florida, golf resort and a hotel and condo skyscraper in Chicago, according to court filings.
