US EditionDOJ opens grand jury investigation into Letitia James tied to Trump civil case
- A grand jury in Albany has been assembled by federal prosecutors to investigate the state's top legal official over her civil fraud lawsuits targeting Donald Trump and the National Rifle Association.

- James' personal lawyer Abbe Lowell criticized the investigation as a politically motivated retaliation effort and stated that if prosecutors pursue questionable methods yet truly seek the facts, they are prepared to present all relevant evidence and legal arguments.
- James' office declined to discuss subpoenas but affirmed it stands behind its litigation successes and will continue defending New Yorkers' rights amid the ongoing investigation.
