Donald Trump to testify in New York fraud trial, along with children Ivanka, Donald Jr and Eric

Key points:

* The lawsuit alleges Mr Trump overstated his wealth for years on financial statements
* Mr Trump denies any wrongdoing and has called the trial a politically motivated sham
* The case could strip Mr Trump of some corporate holdings and marquee properties such as Trump Tower

And in the last part of the article there is an interesting analysis of why Ivanka's testimony is deemed relevant, even though "her lawyers may appeal to try to block her testimony".
