“The US justice department has filed a subpoena ordering New York Attorney General Letitia James to testify about her civil fraud investigation into President Donald Trump, sources have told US media. James won a civil case against Trump in 2023 – before he returned to office – that accused him of overvaluing his properties in order to take out loans with favourable terms. He is currently appealing against the judgment. No charges have been filed against James. Both her office and Trump argue the other has abused their investigative powers. James’ office has also received another subpoena regarding her investigation of the National Rifle Association, according to CBS, the BBC’s US partner. The investigation into James is being led by the US Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of New York, CBS reports.” (08/09/25)
