New York Attorney General Letitia James is seeking to enforceto Trump and his two eldest children, Ivanka and Donald Trump Jr.

“The Trumps must comply with our lawful subpoenas for documents and testimony because no one in this country can pick and choose if and how the law applies to them,” James said in a statement. “We will not be deterred in our efforts to continue this investigation and ensure that no one is above the law.”

In a letter Wednesday to the state judge hearing the subpoena dispute, Arthur Engoron, James' office said Trump's statement contradicted legal pleadings in which his lawyers said they either had no knowledge or limited information about allegations that the documents were misleading. Testifying in a civil investigation could be a potential peril for the Trumps, if they did anything wrong. Anything they say could be used against them in a parallel criminal investigation being overseen by the Manhattan district attorney’s office.
