NEW YORK: Former President Donald Trump has been campaigning in between his many different court appearances for much of the year.
But his decision to attend the first day of his $250 million civil fraud trial in New York created another opportunity to appear on camera from inside a courtroom when the judge allowed photographers to document the moment before proceedings got underway.
Keeping track of the dizzying array of civil and criminal cases is a full-time job.
Trump denies any wrongdoing and has pleaded not guilty in all of the criminal cases. He alleges a "witch hunt" against him. But each trial has its own distinct storyline to follow.
Here's an updated list of developments in Trump's very complicated set of court cases, beginning with the one playing out in Manhattan this week.
The civil fraud trial, unlike Trump's multiple criminal indictments, does not carry the danger of a felony conviction and jail time, but it could very well cost him some of his most prized possessions, including Trump Tower.
New York Attorney General Letitia James brought the $250 million lawsuit in September 2022, alleging that Trump and his co-defendants committed repeated fraud in inflating assets on financial statements to get better terms on commercial real estate loans and insurance policies.
