The ruling also established that the state didn’t need to prove an intent to defraud to win a judgment against Trump and moved the statute of limitations back to 2007 from 2010 for those who were allegedly defrauded.
“Today’s decision is a clear victory in our effort to hold Donald Trump and Trump University accountable for defrauding thousands of students,” Attorney General Eric Schneiderman, a Democrat, said of his $40 million lawsuit.

The record appears to show quite differently from how Donald Trump portrays them. The plaintiff has responded to the motion for summary judgment by directing the court to the record showing that: “Trump orchestrated a multimillion dollar marketing scheme with one goal: to influence students to enroll in TU. The three pillars of Trump’s success as a promoter are: (1) playing to people’s fantasies; (2) using hyperbole; and (3) employing what he calls ‘innocent exaggeration.’ These are the pillars of what the rest of us would call lying.” Next the plaintiff proceeds to lay out fact after fact showing Trump’s fraud, thus creating a factual dispute that will preclude summary judgment.
It would be very surprising for Judge Curiel to dispose of this case by summary judgment at this late date, not to mention to reverse himself and decertify the case as a class action. Before Paula Jones sued President Bill Clinton, Trump might have thought there would be refuge from a civil lawsuit if he became president, but the U.S. Supreme Court in Clinton vs. Jones (1997) resolved the issue holding that sitting presidents are subject to civil lawsuits. If Trump won the presidency, but is unable to settle this lawsuit (which I suspect the case), it would follow him into the White House. Trial is scheduled for after the election.

The FEC canned political contributions by foreign nationals in 1966 to “minimize foreign intervention in U.S. elections by establishing a series of limitations on foreign nationals.”According to the FEC, it is unlawful “to help foreign nationals violate that ban or to solicit, receive or accept contributions or donations from them. Persons who knowingly and willfully engage in these activities may be subject to fines and/or imprisonment.”
Now, it looks like the commission is taking issue with Trump’s latest fundraising efforts. “Donald J. Trump for President has knowingly and illegally solicited contributions from foreign nationals,” the complaint reads, noting that “a reasonable person would have inquired whether these individuals were foreign nationals, or concluded that there is a substantial probability that these were foreign nationals,” given their email addresses.”
Trump Slammed With FEC Complaint for 'Knowingly and Illegally' Soliciting Foreign Donations
When Stephenee Simms heard in 2006 that Donald Trump was building condo towers in Baja, the lure of a posh weekend getaway on the rustic coast just south of Tijuana was hard to resist.
Simms, then an aerospace purchasing agent living in Canoga Park, said she used her life savings to pay a deposit of just over $50,000 for unit No. 602, a one-bedroom overlooking the Pacific.
All told, two years of aggressive marketing yielded $32.5 million in buyer deposits, every bit of it spent by the time Trump and his partners abandoned the project in early 2009 as the global economy was reeling. Most of the buyers sued them for fraud.
Condo buyers at troubled Trump towers in Tampa and Fort Lauderdale, Fla., claimed in lawsuits that they too were misled and lost deposits. Students at the defunct Trump University say in fraud suits that they wasted money on worthless real-estate training. Trump’s string of business bankruptcies has stuck suppliers with unpaid bills and banks with uncollectible debts.
Trump's failed Baja condo resort left buyers feeling betrayed and angry
In short, in April 2016 a complainant filed a civil suit in California against Donald Trump, accusing the candidate of rape and sexual abuse (acts that had allegedly occurred more than 20 years earlier) and seeking $100,000,000 in damages. That lawsuit was thrown out, but in June 2016 the same plaintiff filed a similar civil suit in a federal court in New York involving the same serious allegations. The status of that second lawsuit is pending, and the only information available so far about its allegations so far comes from the complainant's filing.
