Court monitor Barbara Jones sent her letter to Justice Engoron, who will determine whether to ban Trump from New York real estate for life

The court-appointed monitor overseeing Donald Trump’s businesses told a judge on Friday that the former president’s financial information has contained “incomplete” or “inconsistent” disclosures containing “errors.”

“I have identified certain deficiencies in the financial information that I have reviewed, including disclosures that are either incomplete, present results inconsistently, and/or contain errors,” former federal judge Barbara Jones, tasked with scrutinizing the former president’s business empire, wrote in a 12-page letter.

Though she described Trump and his businesses as “cooperative” with her investigation, Jones added that “information required to be submitted to me pursuant to the terms of the monitorship order and review protocol has, at times, been lacking in completeness and timeliness.”

    I’m going to stand up for the American education system, which is weird. But there is no way to expect someone to learn everything they need to know about all the normal topics and fringe legal systems by the time you’re 18. We already tacked a bunch of math on because Harvard decided everyone needed to know geometry and things spiraled out of control from there with math.

    The fact that the court system can assign your company a monitor while you are being accused of fraud isn’t that crazy, but it’s also pretty specific. Most people don’t know about because they aren’t lawyers and that’s frankly okay.
