NEW YORK (AP) — Former President Donald Trump plans to testify again next month in his civil fraud trial.
His lawyers said Monday that he will return to the witness stand Dec. 11.
Trump already testified aggressively earlier this month, when he was called by his adversaries in the lawsuit, the New York attorney general’s office.
This time, the Republican 2024 presidential front-runner’s own lawyers will open the questioning.
They can ask a wider range of queries than they could on cross-examination last time.
The state lawyers claim that Trump and his company misled lenders and insurers by giving them financial statements that greatly inflated his asset values and overall net worth.
The defendants deny wrongdoing.
