Shayna Jacobs and Jonathan O’Connell, writing in The Washington Post said both the adult children of former US President Trump served as executives at his company - Trump Organization. The subpoenas were disclosed on Monday in an unsealed court filing that also detailed a schedule for challenges to requests the siblings and ex-president sit for depositions and provide records.
Later, the Trumps filed a motion to quash the subpoenas - or delay them until a parallel criminal probe is completed, reported The Washington Post. James responded by issuing a statement vowing to compel the trio to testify. “For more than two years, members of the Trump family and the Trump Organization have continually sought to delay and impede our investigation into Donald Trump and the Trump Organization,” the statement said. “These delay tactics will not stop us from following the facts or the law.”
