Former President Donald Trump expects to attend at least the first day of the civil trial pitting him and his company against New York Attorney General Letitia James, sources with knowledge of Trump’s plan say. The trial begins Monday.

Trump’s plan was first revealed in a court filing related to a separate court case, Trump’s lawsuit against his former lawyer and fixer, Michael Cohen. In it, the judge in Cohen’s case said that Trump asked to postpone a scheduled Oct. 3 deposition because of his intention to attend the first week of the trial.

The sources told CBS News that Trump expects to attend at least Monday’s proceedings.

    I just really hope they did plenty of homework. That’s part of the reason Cosby got off is because he provided testimony in a civil trial that contained criminal implications. He only did that with the caveat that his testimony could not be used for a criminal trial.
