A state attorney's question to Eric Trump in the Trump Organization's ongoing fraud trial prompted the former president's son to throw up his hands in annoyance, according to reporters in the courtroom Thursday, per Mediaite.
Trump is an executive at the company, which, along with him, his father, his brother and other executives, is the defendant in a multi-million dollar civil fraud lawsuit brought by New York Attorney General Letitia James. In September, just ahead of the trial's start, New York Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron ruled in a partial summary judgment that the company had defrauded lenders and insurance companies to obtain better deals by drastically overvaluing their assets on statements of financial condition.
