The office of NY Attorney General Letitia James cited a report accusing former Trump Organization CFO Allen Weisselberg of lying under oath.

The New York Attorney General's office suggested that the Trump Organization failed to produce evidence in the $250 million fraud trial of Donald Trump and his company.The AG's office proposed that an independent monitor conduct a forensic review of electronic data held by the Trump Organization.

The attorney general's suit accuses Trump, his sons Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, the Trump Organization and top executives of misstating the true values of properties to obtain tax advantages and better terms on loans and insurance. James wants the court to levy $250 million in damages and permanently bar Trump and his two adult sons from serving as officers of any New York business.

The letter cites a Forbes article from last week accusing Weisselberg of lying during his sworn testimony last week in the civil trial in Manhattan Supreme Court. "A review of old emails and notes, some of which the attorney general's office does not possess, show that Weisselberg absolutely thought about Trump's apartment — and played a key role in trying to convince Forbes over the course of several years that it was worth more than it really was," Forbes wrote.

Weisselberg as part of those exchanges had obtained financial information about the company's golf courses, Wallace wrote.
