At a hearing in state court in Manhattan Tuesday, Judge Saliann Scarpulla told the two sides to work out issues by Aug. 15, including whether Trump’s children Ivanka, Eric and Donald Trump Jr. will agree not to serve on any New York charity board for a year without admitting fault. The rest of the case against Trump would continue, drawing the president into yet another legal battle in the months leading up to the mid-term election in November.

 

The judge set a court date of Oct. 11 for remaining claims against Trump. Futerfas said he was unsure whether Trump will assert, as he has in other lawsuits, that he is immune from the claims.

 

"We’ve laid out all the facts in the petition," Assistant Attorney General Yael Fuchs told the judge. The case will show a "willful disregard of relevant law," she said.
