A New York appeals court heard arguments Thursday regarding Trump's appeal of his nearly half-a-billion business fraud suit.
Prosecutors with the New York Attorney General's Office were pressed by a state appeals court on Thursday that is reviewing former President Donald Trump's $454 million civil fraud judgment handed down earlier this year.The former president and others associated with the Trump Organization were found liable by New York Judge Arthur Engoron in February for misleading lenders and insurance companies to obtain more favorable terms.
His lawyers also argued in court that Trump never instructed anyone to inflate his assets' value and that any discrepancies in the financial records should have been flagged by the outside accountants who helped prepare the statements.'There were no victims because the banks made a lot of money,' Trump said in days leading up to Engron issuing his ruling in February, as reported by the Associated Press.
