Donald Trump,Eric Trump,Donald Trump Jr.,Fraud
Two of Donald Trump's sons took the stand to deny their role in company fraud this week, and the court in New York saw some combative exchanges and even a few humorous moments.
New York Judge Arthur Engoron has already ruled that brothers Eric and Donald Jr, their father and other Trump Organization executives inflated company assets to secure favourable loans, but the months-long trial will determine the penalties the defendants will face.
New York Attorney General Letitia James is seeking a $250m (£202m) fine and severe restrictions on the family business.
Here are some of the biggest takeaways from their testimony.
