The appellate hearing for Donald Trump’s bid to dismiss the $454 million fraud judgment against him has commenced. Trump attorney John Sauer is presenting first, followed by Judith Vale, the Deputy Solicitor General for the New York Attorney General.
The hearing is anticipated to last around 30 minutes, with each side allocated approximately 15 minutes for their arguments. Trump’s legal team is aiming to reverse the $454 million judgment imposed by state Judge Arthur Engoron in February. The judge found Trump, his sons Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, and his business accountable for fraud, false financial statements, and false business records.
