A New York appeals court has dismissed claims against Ivanka Trump in a $250 million lawsuit brought against her father, former President Donald Trump, and his company by the state’s attorney general.
In a five-page ruling on Tuesday, the Appellate Division of New York’s Supreme Court found that the claims against Ivanka Trump were “time-barred” and that she should be dismissed as a defendant in the case.
The civil lawsuit, brought by New York Attorney General Letitia James, accused former President Trump of padding his net worth by billions of dollars and misleading banks, insurance companies and others about the value of his assets, including golf courses and the Mar-a-Lago estate.
The court ruled that all claims against Ivanka Trump should have been dismissed as untimely, noting that the statute of limitations had expired. The court also noted that Ivanka Trump was not accused of any wrongdoing in the case.
The ruling is a victory for Ivanka Trump, who has been the target of numerous lawsuits since her father left office in January. While the ruling does not mean that the other defendants in the case are off the hook, it does provide a measure of relief for Ivanka Trump.
