Also there’s #Exhibit36, in which #JeffMcConney describes in McConney’s own handwritten notes based on a conversation he had w/ #AllenWeisselberg. He testified #Exhibit35 contains on the left-hand side, Allen Weisselberg’s handwriting. McConney said, I know it’s his handwriting because I’ve worked w/him for 35 yrs.

It’s believed the NYAG will conclude its presentation of the case this week, ending w/ #Ivanka Trump’s testimony slated for after her father’s.
She appealed the order compelling her testimony several times, & lost every time.
Justice #Engoron already found #Trump liable for “persistent & repeated” #fraud, in addition to #DonaldTrumpJr, #EricTrump, fmr #TrumpOrganization execs #AllenWeisselberg, #JeffMcConney, & several Trump business entities.
-
After that, Justice #Engoron called it a day.
Trial starts at 10 am ET tomorrow w/ #EricTrump still on the stand.

#NYAG showed a 2013 email from #JeffMcConney to #EricTrump in which McConney tell Eric he needs the value for the #SevenSprings estate in Westchester County, NY.
NYAG questioned Eric about speaking to someone from Cushman & Wakefield in 2014 about the appraisal process.
Eric testified he remembered speaking to someone from the firm about it.
(Eric repeatedly has avoided yes or no answers to questioning.)

#NYAG showed a 2015 email from #AllenWeisselberg to #EricTrump in which he discussed securing a line of #credit.
Weisselberg tells Eric that he'll be using #Trump Sr's #financial stmnts to secure it.
Eric testified that he read the email.
Another email, Feb. 23, 2017, #JeffMcConney asks Eric for input on footnotes to Trump's SFCs:
"We're working on your Dad's financial statement," McConney wrote, "footnotes related to the three European clubs."

#NYAG shows an Aug 20 2012 email in which #JeffMcConney tells Eric he's working on #Trump #SFCs & needs #valuation info on #SevenSprings.
NYAG: "He's asking for your assistance in 2013”
#EricTrump: "Yes.” Eric adds he gave info on project statuses to McConney.
NYAG: "Mr. Trump it is an undeniable fact, is it not, that as of Dec 4, 2012... you did know that your father had an annual financial statement (which) was used to show your father's financial wherewithal?"
Eric: "it's just incorrect."

#DonaldTrumpJr said as the primary on most of the deals, he could have discussed them w/the accounting team, but if he did so it was w/o knowing they'd use the values on SFCs.
"I didn't give them a value of $246M. I could’ve sat there & gone through each one of the deals individually w/ #AllenWeisselberg, #JeffMcConney, #DonaldBender, & given them an idea of what I believe the cash flow coming from those deals would’ve been worth, not even knowing it was for the purposes of this” (the #SFC).

Now #JeffMcConney is testifying about the #valuation of #Trump’s #BriarcliffManor golf course.
McConney's valuation of the property changed from $25.1M in 2012 to >$100M in 2013.
#McConney said the jump was due to a Sept 25, 2013 phone call had w/ #EricTrump.
Eric told him the sale of 71 "midrise units" were approved on the property but put on hold.

#NYAG #Amer questions #JeffMcConney more about how he #valued specific #Trump #properties & what info he may have excluded from his accountants’ assessment.
Note: Trump’s principal lawyer #ChrisKise is absent today.
Trump's legal team this morning filed a stay request to the state #Appellate Division (#AD1), to halt the #trial & #dismiss #Engoron’s #SummaryJudgment. #Kise, who was Florida’s solicitor general, (the top FL appellate lawyer). So presumably he’s dealing w/ they stay.

Among other nefarious activities, you may recall from the #TrumpOrganization’s #criminal trial that #JeffMcConney was the guy who kept a secret log to track reduced salaries & corresponding perks for #AllenWeisselberg & others, which led to separate books being provided to the #IRS.
-
Commenting on the nitpickiness of #CliffRobert's questioning, Justice #Engoron quipped that it was beginning to sound like Bill Clinton being questioned about "what the definition of 'is' is."
After some brief re-direct, #Bender is done testifying (sheesh, felt like Turturro in Quiz Show there for a bit) & the AG's office has called its 2nd witness, fmr #TrumpOrganization snr VP #JeffMcConney.
-
Another attorney for #Trump's side, #CliffRobert, grilled #Bender about the number of times he's testified that he can't remember something since he first took the stand on Monday.
"Over the last few days, you have said 'I don’t recall' or 'I don’t remember' over 90 times?" Robert asked. "I believe that’s right," Bender answered.
He then pressed him on his dealings w/ #JeffMcConney, a senior VP at the #TrumpOrganization w/whom Bender worked closely.
-
Defense atty #JesusSuarez told Justice #Engoron he planned to continue cross-examining #Bender through Thurs afternoon, but promised to "streamline" questions after the judge criticized the timing.
#JeffMcConney, a top #TrumpOrganization exec, is expected as the next witness, & he’ll be ready tomorrow in case cross-examination of Bender concludes earlier than expected.
Court adjourned for the day.
-
The trial resumed w/o #Trump, the mood in the courtroom considerably lighter now that he is is gone.
#Engoron allowed an interruption to #Bender’s testimony to accommodate #CameronHarris, the partner at #WhitleyPenn who handled Trump’s #accounting work after #Mazars resigned in 2020.
#Harris is now discussing the role of #JeffMcConney, the #TrumpOrg comptroller, in their engagement to compile the statements of financial condition.
