I was able to get past the WSJ paywall by opening private window.Breaking WSJ: New York prosecutors have subpoenaed a Manhattan private school as they seek the cooperation of Trump Org. CFO Allen Weisselberg in their investigation of Trump and his company.
Weisselberg's grandchildren are students at the school.
New York prosecutors have subpoenaed a Manhattan private school as they seek the cooperation of the Trump Organization’s chief financial officer in their investigation of former President Donald Trump and his company, according to people familiar with the matter.
The subpoena seeks information from Columbia Grammar & Preparatory School, where grandchildren of Trump Organization CFO Allen Weisselberg are students, the people said. From 2012 to 2019, more than $500,000 of the children’s tuition was paid for with checks signed by either Mr. Weisselberg or Mr. Trump, the two children’s mother, Jennifer Weisselberg, told The Wall Street Journal. She is the former wife of Mr. Weisselberg’s son Barry.

If the Trump org is writing those kinds of checks, shouldn't they be sending out 1099?

(CNN)The New York attorney general's office has opened a criminal tax investigation into top Trump Organization officer Allen Weisselberg, increasing the legal pressure on the long-time aide to former President Donald Trump, people familiar with the investigation say.
The pressure on Weisselberg is mounting from two directions with the attorney general looking into his personal taxes, while prosecutors in the district attorney's office are digging into his role at the Trump Organization, his personal finances, and benefits given to his son Barry, a long-time employee of the Trump Organization.
I can understand the concern about time running out on the statute of limitations. However, I would point out that much of downstate NY (more than half the population) are highly educated (sure, plenty of folks upstate are as well, but much of NY upstate is quite rural and rather conservative). They're not going to fall for promises of charging Trump "real soon now." They are going to vote to re-elect Leticia James based on actual results, both charging and winning the case. She's betting her career on this and she knows it. So she's making sure to do it right.fierceredpanda wrote: ↑Thu May 20, 2021 9:37 am Time to put up or shut up, because I'm starting to wonder if Leticia James isn't just using this for political ends to remind her electorate of just how eager she is to go after Donald Trump.
When the crime occurred. Sometimes courts can find that certain circumstances justify tolling (i.e., pausing) the statutory timeline, as happened in the Harvey Weinstein case because of his being continuously out of NY for a significant period of time. But that's the sort of thing that automatically provokes an interlocutory appeal request if the court allows it. I can pretty much guarantee that if the NYAG or Manhattan DA are charging something outside the five-year window, Trump's lawyers will move to dismiss on statute of limitations grounds and sharpen their pens to appeal and hold up the works for months if the judge handling the case denies the motion. And with every day that passes, any arguments for tolling the statute grow weaker, because there is literally no excuse now. He's not President anymore. Courts generally don't have patience for prosecutors treating statutes of limitation as minor inconveniences to be circumvented rather than the presumptive estoppel they are supposed to be, nor should they.johnpcapitalist wrote: ↑Thu May 20, 2021 9:50 am Also, for clarification: does the clock on the statute of limitations start when the crime occured or when it was "discovered"? If the latter, then there might be more time than we think.
Mr. Trump has been described by advisers as agitated by the two investigations. After moving last week from his private Florida club, Mar-a-Lago, to another of his clubs in New Jersey, he then decamped to Trump Tower for his first extended stay in years, spending time at the office where aides have been grappling with the inquiries for many months.
