Donald Trump and Letitia James legal dispute

Overview

Legal representatives for Donald Trump have filed a letter with the New York Supreme Court alleging that Attorney General Letitia James failed to comply with a court order regarding evidence preservation. The defense argues that James has not presented the required ‘preservation practices’ and ‘preservation efforts’ related to a civil case involving property valuations.

Trump’s legal team contends the case is flawed and suggests that James may be withholding key evidence, specifically communications involving former lawyer Michael Cohen. Cohen, who previously served as a witness for the prosecution in related criminal matters, recently claimed in a Substack article that he felt ‘pressured and coerced’ during meetings with lawyers from the Attorney General’s office to provide testimony that satisfied government objectives.
