The Manhattan district attorney on Monday filed a motion to dismiss U.S. President Donald Trumpâs lawsuit challenging a subpoena for his tax records.
A week ago, Trump made his latest bid to quash Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vanceâs subpoena for his Tax Returns, after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled the president was not immune from state criminal probes.
In his second amended complaint, filed in federal court in Manhattan on July 27, Trump argued the subpoena was âwildly overbroadâ and was issued âbad faithâ and amounts to âharassment.â
Vance, in response, said Trump did not substantiate his assertions that it was overly broad or issued in bad faith.
The latest complaint âmerely regurgitates allegations and arguments this court has rejected before,â Vance said in court papers, urging the court to dismiss the challenge âwithout delay.â
