Fraud is the purposeful misrepresentation of fact. For fraud to have occurred, it isn’t necessary for there to have been damages incurred by a victim.
But assuming that all the elements of fraud are proved, restitution, even full restitution with interest, does not excuse the fraud.

The lenders have confirmed that the competing opinions of values, and resulting negotiations, are the typical business model for this business. It’s been used for hundreds of years.
With this precedent against Trump, you can be prosecuted for believing your house is worth 10 K more than a judge and AG say it is.
If you ever have a house to sell, You’d better hope you don’t have a local judge and prosecutor who dislike you. Or you can just let it go for half of what it’s worth, to avoid the abuse.
We’ve explained this to you guys many times. It’s a shame that you keep “forgetting” how obvious this is.
For all of his bluster and accusations at his $370 million financial fraud trial, at the end of the day the fact that Donald Trump "cooked the books" is what will end up costing him when Judge Arthur Engoron renders his final verdict regarding the Trump Organization.

......
If what this evil duo are doing is LEGAL and CONSTITUTIONAL, there probably nothing that can be done to stop it, and other business owners in New York state and similar states, should think about playing it safe, and moving out.

-WeMustCare
Those other business owners could always just decide to obey the law.
Seems like a much easier solution, to me.

No, Trump didn't cook the books. The left cooked the books in their spiteful little minds, and then transferred their own guilt onto Trump because they are desperate to hold onto power.
You can lie forever but it's only in your mind that it's true. Everyone else can see it.

But do you realize that without American businesses being in New Zealand because of the rather large tax breaks that NZ gives American businesses, we wouldn't even be there?
I mean without us, y'all would be unemployed and go back to sheep herding.
Without us? What exactly did you personally do to make this happen?
Oh snap.... you are a government member and are currently unemployed, as you posted.
Yeh don't do that..that's lame.

There were no victims here. If anyone should be held accountable it should the bank/banks that loaned him money..they didn't due their due diligence...like they should have.....they didn't care. The banks knew the loans would be paid in full...all the while benefiting from $$ earned off of an interest rate on a loan in a higher amount than maybe should have been....if only they did their appraisals and due diligence. I have a feeling they didn't care...they conducted business with Trump in the past and knew he was good for his word.....it's on the banks.
If I called my bank and asked for a loan against my home for 30,000,000 when it's only worth $800,000 they would be doing some appraising...
This is a hit job...luckily we may not have a NYC as we know it for much longer...the geniuses who keep voting in the trash have sent it.over the edge...the illegals are going to destroy what's left.
So, you think when someone gets defrauded, it's their fault for being misled?
No, it's their fault for not doing their due diligence as they should have. That's on them, not Trump.
Defrauding people is against the law. 18 U.S. Code Chapter 47 - FRAUD AND FALSE STATEMENTS
If you defraud people, you break the law. Simple as that.

Decades working commercial real estate here,
Unlike residential homes commercial real estate is valued mainly on current and future leasehold valuation or income stream and minorly on the hard asset itself.
Cooking books would be be lying about current leasehold income vs operational expenses.
Nothing in the clown show Engoron put on touched these concepts.
It was very much like an old Soviet show trial where guilt was adjudicated from bench and then summary execution for the victim whose only crime was disagreement wit TPTB.

Poor old gal knows nothing but old sayings and her own home cooked silliness. Every moment spent trying to communicate with her is a moment wasted.
It’s what the internet offers to people like this. They’ve got nowhere else to be.

It boggles my mind that a nutjob who runs on a platform to take down a top legitimate business owner in the state, would get the seal of approval from the voters in that state.
Stolen elections matter is all I can say.
