Judge Deals Setback to Trump Family: Ugly Pyramid Scheme Lawsuit Likely to Unfold in Public.
'A federal judge sitting in the Southern District of New York has refused to stay a lawsuit alleging that Donald Trump, Donald Trump, Jr., Eric Trump, Ivanka Trump, and the Trump Corporation committed various business torts, including engaging in an illegal pyramid scheme.
The complicated and anonymous class action lawsuit, filed by a Jane Doe and others, resulted in motions to stay the proceedings and interlocutory appeals by the Trumps, the Trump Corporation, and a third party called ACN Opportunity, LLC. ACN was ordered to produce documents relevant to the claims. Interlocutory appeals are appeals to higher courts filed in the midst, rather than at the conclusion, of lower court litigation.
The judge, Lorna G. Schofield, a Barack Obama appointee, said the lawsuit would not be put on hold.
The lawsuit, originally filed in Oct. 2018 as an anti-racketeering enterprise action, was later streamlined. The class sued on various state and federal chargesincluding racketeering and conspiracy to racketeer claims. The two federal claims were dismissed by the court after the Trump family filed for a broad dismissal in January 2019. But the case is yet living.'>>>
