Donald Trump Jr. returning to the stand in New York fraud trial as defense's first witness

Donald Trump Jr. is expected to testify for a second time in his family's civil fraud trial in New York on Monday, when the defense will begin calling witnesses.

Trump Jr. was previously called to the stand on Nov. 2 and Nov. 3, when the state was presenting its side of the $250 million fraud case. He testified he relied on the Trump Organization's accountants for the financial statements that are at the center of the trial.

The defense did not question Trump Jr. at the time. His siblings, Eric Trump and Ivanka Trump, and father, former President Donald Trump, were also called to the stand after Trump Jr.'s first appearance.
