Don Jr. in court to testify in civil fraud case

Don Jr. to testify in $250M NYC civil fraud trial as former prez warns judge: ‘Leave my children alone’Donald Trump Jr.

He also got into a round of banter with Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron and AG lawyer Colleen Faherty, about the pronunciation of the work “revocable.” He answered many questions about the hierarchy of power at the Trump Organization including explaining that his brother Eric and he were on equal footing in the family real estate empire from 2011 through 2017.“I focused a lot on our international business, our hotel company, development of new licensing deals and such. I could have done anything and everything,” he added.

Trump’s side has 128 potential witnesses listed — though it isn’t known how many of those will actually be called.Engoron wouldn’t let her out off of taking the witness stand finding that her testimony was still relevant. She could try to appeal that ruling before Wednesday to try to get out of having to show up in-person to court.

He said that because of this Trump was given lower interest rates by banks, saving him the $168 million and therefore causing the banks to lose out on the same amount.
