Letitia James Vows to Move Forward with Trump Civil Case


Last year Donald Trump was found liable for fraud by New York Attorney General Letitia James [click here if you missed that].

Despite Trump being reelected, AG James is refusing to drop the case...

From NBC
New York Attorney General Letitia James has rejected President-elect Donald Trump's request to walk away from her office's $486 million civil fraud judgment against him.
"This Office will not stipulate to vacate the final judgment" against Trump and his company "or otherwise seek to dismiss the action," a lawyer for James' office said in a letter to Trump attorney John Sauer.
Sauer had asked James' office to voluntarily dismiss the case last month, saying that it could interfere with Trump's duties as president and that she should drop it to promote "unity."
In a statement, Trump spokesperson Steven Cheung called James' letter "sad and weak." He added, "AG James should heed President Trump’s call for national unity and drop this baseless, discredited witch hunt."
