Trump denied having a sexual relationship with Daniels and has repeatedly said he did nothing wrong. Trump entered a not guilty plea in his Manhattan criminal case, which revolves around alleged attempts to hide reimbursements to his former lawyer and 'fixer' Michael Cohen, who paid adult film star Stormy Daniels $130,000 before the 2016 election in exchange for her silence about an alleged affair with Trump years earlier. The lawsuit is proceeding as Trump is facing mounting legal issues on different fronts. The state court judge in that case, Arthur Engoron, has rejected repeated attempts by Trump attorneys to push that date back. The civil case is scheduled to go to trial on Oct. Portions of that previous videotaped deposition were obtained by CBS News via a freedom of information request in January, showing him repeatedly responding 'same answer' to every question after he first invoked the Fifth.Ī spokesperson for James' office did not respond to a request for comment. The Trumps and the company have vehemently denied wrongdoing. James' suit is seeking $250 million and a raft of sanctions that would effectively cease the company's operations in New York. In the New York Attorney General's civil case, Trump, three of his children, and the Trump Organization are accused of orchestrating an extensive fraudulent scheme.

The deposition marked Trump's first return to New York since April 4, when he was arraigned on 34 felony counts of falsification of business records in a Manhattan criminal case related to hush money payments made before the 2016 election. 'He remains resolute in his stance that he has nothing to conceal, and he looks forward to educating the Attorney General about the immense success of his multi-billion dollar company,' Habba said.
