CNBC: Judge orders Eric Trump to testify before election in New York attorney general probe of President Trump’s company
Attorneys for the AG’s office argued to the judge earlier Wednesday that Eric Trump has no right to delay a subpoena for his testimony as part of an ongoing investigation.
“We simply can’t delay compliance for another two months,” one of those attorneys, Matthew Colangelo, said during a video conference before Engoron.
The president’s son wanted to delay his testimony until after the election, but a judge shot down that request.
#BREAKING: A judge just ruled that Eric Trump can no longer delay an interview under oath with my office as part of our ongoing investigation into financial dealings of the Trump Organization.
Eric Trump must interview with my office by October 7th, 2020.
