Thanks so much for this. Interesting that one of the defendants is the ‘Donald J Trump Revocable Trust’, described as the ‘legal owner of the entities constituting the Trump Organisation’. I wonder how a trust can hold rights. And how
a trust can be sued. Or this this some sort of corporate trust?

Subject: Trump Complaint
For those who might be interested, the complaint filed by the NY Attorney General against Donald Trump and his associates is largely one for disgorgement. The complaint lists seven causes of action for fraud and conspiracy.
Although, the AG asks for other remedies, such as orders barring the defendants from managing public companies in New York, the main remedy is disgorgement for wrongdoing. The claim if for $250 million.
The complaint can be found here.
