N.Y. attorney general seeks to depose Trump on property valuations
Dec. 9 (UPI) -- New York Attorney General Letitia James is seeking to depose former President Donald Trump as part of a civil fraud investigation of the Trump Organization, several outlets reported Thursday.
Unnamed sources told The Washington Post, CNN and The New York Times that James requested an interview with Trump on Jan. 7 at her Albany office. The investigation seeks to determine whether the company committed fraud by lowering valuations of its properties in reports to property tax officers and raising them to secure loans or tax breaks.

The lower court judge had refused a US request in January to extradite Assange to face charges over WikiLeaks’ publication of secret military documents a decade ago, saying he was likely to kill himself if held under harsh (US) prison conditions.
In its appeal, the US government argued Assange had “no history of serious and enduring mental illness.”
US authorities told the British judges that Assange could serve any US prison sentence he would be given in his native Australia — if they agreed to extradite him. https://nypost.com/2021/12/10/us-wins-appeal-in-julian-assange-case-wi

Donald Trump offered Julian Assange a pardon if he would say Russia was not involved in leaking Democratic party emails, a court in London has been told.

Senior CIA officials during the Trump administration discussed abducting and even assassinating WikiLeaks founder, Julian Assange, according to a US report citing former officials. (This was discussed BEFORE Trump offered Assange a pardon. Trump denies offering a pardon. Trump even denies knowing the Congressman who was Trump's intermediary in offering a pardon. I guess murder was too much even for Trump, who wanted to silence Assange.)

Judge rules against Trump, releases his taxes to Congress
A federal judge on Tuesday ruled that Donald Trump's tax filings can be released by the Treasury Department, striking a death blow against the former president's years-long crusade to keep them hidden from public scrutiny.
The decision, handed down in a 45-page opinion by Judge Trevor McFadden of the Federal District Court for the District of Columbia, specifically gives the House Ways and Means Committee access to Trump's long-sought tax returns. The committee could then vote on whether to publicize the documents.

Quote:Your next step would be saying Trump hasn't been convicted. After that, your next step would be saying Trump still has appeals pending. Because of the sloppy way Americans Courts are run, Trump will be long dead before all the appeals are over.

This guy has been cheating and lying for 20 years, same as Trump, and yet he has not paid his taxes, same as Trump hasn't paid, and he is not in jail, same as Trump isn't:
Houston billionaire software executive may fight IRS for years, despite dementia
By David Voreacos and Neil Weinberg BLOOMBERG
Robert Brockman faces tax evasion and money laundering charges that accuse him of hiding $2 billion in income over two decades.
The biggest tax evasion case against an individual in U.S. history, at least until Trump's case gets filed has been unspooling in a Texas court around the tortuous question of whether 80-year-old Robert Brockman is faking dementia. And while the prosecution may be in trouble — Brockman stares vacantly and multiple experts say he’s incompetent — a parallel but little-publicized effort could bring in a fortune in back taxes even if he dies.
The second effort, brought by the Internal Revenue Service, is civil rather than criminal, so has a lower burden of proof. And it’s aiming at $1.4 billion in taxes, penalties and interest dating back some two decades.
“The IRS goes after people even after they’re dead, so competency or being alive doesn’t matter,” said Megan Brackney, a New York tax attorney not involved in the case. Even so, it will not be easy to collect on the claim, she said.
Brockman, a computer whiz, amassed his fortune building Reynolds & Reynolds, a software vendor for car dealerships, into an industry giant, and investing in private equity firm Vista Equity Partners. Prosecutors allege Brockman evaded taxes on $2 billion, mostly on Vista income, while hiding it in entities that include a Bermudian trust and Swiss bank accounts. Brockman has pleaded not guilty.
Robert Smith, Vista’s billionaire founder, admitted to tax crimes in a related scheme but avoided prosecution in part by agreeing to cooperate in the case against Brockman.
In September, the IRS slapped at least 10 liens on Brockman, his relatives or entities the agency linked to him that own properties in Texas and Colorado. The properties include a stately, 17,000-square-foot home on four acres with a swimming pool and tennis court in Houston.
Collecting on claims
Liens also cover properties in Aspen, Colo. The U.S. is separately trying to seize a $15 million fishing lodge on the nearby Frying Pan River, a trout playground for fly fishing enthusiasts like Brock-man, and a $77.9 million Swiss bank account.
While the civil case poses less of a challenge to the authorities than the criminal one, it’s unclear whether the IRS will collect the $1.4 billion the government says Brockman owes.
That’s because a well-funded defendant has numerous options to fight back, according to tax attorney Bruce Zagaris, who isn’t involved in the litigation. Brock-man’s legal team can contest the IRS claims in U.S. Tax Court, District Court or the Court of Federal Claims. Each has its own pros and cons, Zagaris said.
Brockman and his family already filed five lawsuits in Tax Court against the agency in 1997 and 1998. Those outcomes aren’t public, but the former manager of his Bermudian trust testified at the Houston competency hearing that the dispute intensified Brock-man’s penchant for secrecy and distrust of the IRS, which he dubbed “The House.”
Zagaris said the rules of procedure and evidence in Tax Court are more truncated than in District Court, and a larger portion of cases there tend to end with settlements. In District Court and the Court of Federal Claims, taxpayers must pay the tax ahead of time and seek a refund. Zagaris said the Court of Federal Claims is often considered more favorable to taxpayers.
Any of these
