In a ruling on Tuesday, the Appellate Division of New York’s Supreme Court dismissed the claims against Ivanka Trump, ruling that they were barred by the state’s statute of limitations in a fraud lawsuit brought against her father and his company last year by the state’s attorney general.
New York State Attorney General Letitia James had accused former President Donald Trump of padding his net worth by billions of dollars and misleading banks, insurance companies and others about the value of his assets, including golf courses and the Mar-a-Lago estate. She also named his three eldest children — Ivanka, Donald Jr. and Eric Trump — as defendants, along with multiple Trump Organization executives.
The lawsuit detailed dozens of alleged instances of fraud, many involving claims made on annual financial statements on which Trump valued his wealth in order to secure loans and deals. Attorneys for Ivanka argued that the lawsuit “does not contain a single allegation that Ms. Trump directly or indirectly created, prepared, reviewed, or certified any of her father’s financial statements.”
The court ruled that claims of wrongdoing after February 2016 were permissible, but Ivanka Trump had stepped back from involvement in the Trump Organization and was not accused in the lawsuit of any misconduct during that time period.
But AOC wants the case reopened.
Older Democrats like Pelosi and Biden are venal, corrupt, and ridiculous, but they’re still part of an older world that puts *some* limits on their abuse of power against their enemies. When they pass from the scene and AOC types are in charge, all the brakes are coming off.… https://t.co/I0IsA9cv1H

The attorney general is seeking a financial penalty of $250 million from the Trump Organization, as well as a ban on Trump and his family from doing business in New York. The case is set to go to trial in October.
Ivanka Trump’s representatives did not comment on the ruling, but the Attorney’s General Office stated that they plan to pursue the case.
The witch hunt continues and Democrats are not resting until they go after each member of the Trump organization regardless of what a court says.
What’s even more incredible is that a Soros Attorney General is trying to ban an American from doing business. We are hitting a whole new level of TDS.
