Weisselberg pleaded guilty to lying under oath while testifying in the case.

Allen Weisselberg, former chief financial officer of Trump Organization Inc., prepares to testify at New York State Supreme Court in New York, Oct. 10, 2023.Allen Weisselberg, once the long-serving chief financial officer of the Trump Organization, will be sentenced Wednesday to five months in jail

"Do you admit to all of that?" Judge Laurie Peterson asked during a plea hearing last month. "Yes, your honor," Weisselberg replied. "It was almost de minimis relative to his net worth, so I didn't really focus on it," Weisselberg said during trial. "I never even thought about the apartment."But Forbes published an article following Weisselberg's appearance that accused him of lying under oath and suggested Weisselberg did think about the apartment because he played a key role in trying to convince the magazine the apartment was as big as Trump's financial statements represented.
