NEW YORK (Reuters) – Donald Trump on Wednesday appealed a judge’s refusal to dismiss New York Attorney General Letitia James’ civil fraud lawsuit against him and his family business, two days after the case went to trial.<\/p>\n

The appeal to the Appellate Division, a mid-level appeals court, was filed as the former U.S. president sat in a Manhattan courtroom watching an accountant who used to work for him testify as the state’s first witness.<\/p>\n

James has accused Trump, his adult sons Donald Jr. and Eric, the Trump Organization and others of inflating property values over a decade and Trump’s net worth by up to $2.2 billion.<\/p>\n

The attorney general said the “staggering fraud” was meant to help Trump obtain favorable terms from banks and insurers.<\/p>\n

Justice Arthur Engoron on Sept. 26 said Trump committed fraud, finding “conclusive evidence” that he inflated his fortune by overvaluing his Mar-a-Lago estate, his Trump Tower penthouse apartment, office buildings and golf courses.<\/p>\n

Engoron also ordered the cancellation of certificates that let some of Trump’s businesses, including the Trump Organization, operate in New York.<\/p>\n

The appeal addresses all of Engoron’s main findings.<\/p>\n

Trump has called the judge “deranged,” and suggested on Monday that he be disbarred.<\/p>\n

He has also said James based her case on “fraudulent” numbers as part of a Democratic witch hunt against him.<\/p>\n

“This is a railroading,” Trump said on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Trump, a Republican, leads his party’s race for the 2024 presidential nomination.<\/p>\n

The appeals process could extend beyond the trial, which could last into December.<\/p>\n

Engoron is hearing the case without a jury.<\/p>\n

The attorney general is pursuing six additional claims at the trial, including falsifying business records, insurance fraud and conspiracy.<\/p>\n

James is seeking $250 million in damages. She also wants Trump and his adult sons permanently banned from running businesses in New York.<\/p>\n

Trump separately faces four criminal indictments over his efforts to stay in power following the 2020 election, his handling of classified documents and hush money paid to a porn star. He has denied wrongdoing and pleaded not guilty.<\/p>\n

The government cases have strengthened Trump politically, and his campaign is using them to raise money by portraying him as a martyr. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
