The New York attorney general’s lawsuit against former President Donald Trump uses a common state business law to make allegations about property valuations, which lawyers say are rarely the focus of civil-fraud cases
uses a common state business law to make allegations about property valuations, which lawyers say are rarely the focus of civil-fraud cases.
Ms. James’s complaint is anchored by a longstanding New York law that gives the attorney general broad powers to combat “persistent fraud or illegality in the carrying on, conducting or transaction of business.” The lawsuit is seeking significant penalties that could curtail the company’s operations in New York.
“There is a lot of wiggle room in certain of these valuations,” said Sarah Krissoff, a former federal prosecutor now at Day Pitney LLP. “What the attorney general did well here is provide such stark examples and show this pattern over time.” Donald Trump said he invoked his Fifth Amendment rights and declined to answer questions from the New York attorney general at a scheduled deposition in August.

Demands for bans have become more frequent in recent years, said Brian Mahanna, a former senior official at the New York attorney general’s office who is now a partner at law firm WilmerHale.
