N.Y. AG Asks Judge to Hold Trump in Contempt of Court for Refusing to Turn Over Docs for Investigation of His Company

New York Attorney General Letitia James asked a judge Thursday to hold former President Donald Trump in contempt of court for refusing to comply with a judge’s order to turn over documents for her investigation of his company.
James also asked Manhattan Supreme Court Judge Arthur Engoron to fine Trump $10,000 for every day he fails to surrender those documents.
The attorney general also says in a court filing that Trump is in violation of Engoron’s order to give the state’s investigators the documents pursuant to a subpoena by March 31, a deadline that itself had previously been extended from March 3.
