Former US president Donald Trump returns to New York ahead of deposition
Former US president Donald Trump is back in New York for a deposition in a business fraud lawsuit filed against him and his company by the state’s attorney general, according to a person familiar with the matter. Trump is in New York after his arraignment last week on felony charges in a separate criminal case involving hush-money payments made during the 2016 campaign to bury claims of extramarital sexual encounters that Trump says never happened. Trump is expected to face questioning at New York Attorney General Letitia James’ office in lower Manhattan, according to the person, who was not authorized to speak publicly about the matter and did so on condition of anonymity.
