Legal Analyst: Letitia James Could Potentially Seize Trump Assets in Criminal Trial

New York Attorney General Letitia James May Seize Donald Trump’s Assets During Hush Money Trial, Legal Analyst Says

New York Attorney General Letitia James is making headlines once again as she may seize former President Donald Trump’s assets during his criminal hush money trial. Legal analyst Glenn Kirschner revealed this possibility on Saturday, shedding light on the ongoing legal battle between James and Trump.

In February, Judge Arthur Engoron ruled in James’ favor in her civil fraud lawsuit against Trump, ordering him to pay over $450 million for allegedly inflating the value of his properties and net worth. Despite Trump’s denial of any wrongdoing, James has been relentless in her pursuit of justice.

Recently, Trump attempted to post a reduced bond to prevent James from seizing his assets, but she quickly objected, citing concerns about the sufficiency of the bond. Kirschner highlighted the three main reasons James urged the judge to reject the bond, emphasizing the potential consequences for Trump.

As the legal drama unfolds, Trump is also facing a criminal trial for 34 felony charges related to hush money payments made during his 2016 presidential campaign. This historic trial marks the first time a former president has faced criminal charges in U.S. history.

With lawyers from both sides set to meet in court for a hearing on the bond, the stakes are high for Trump as he navigates multiple legal battles. Newsweek has reached out to all parties involved for comment on the latest developments.

As the legal saga continues to unfold, all eyes are on New York as the fate of Trump’s assets hangs in the balance. Stay tuned for updates on this high-profile case as it unfolds in the coming days.
