Well I’ll will give Trump praise for sticking by his guns when he thinks he is right, it would be MUCH easier for someone with his money just to give all the plantiffs big confidential payout (which is probably what they want) to drop the lawsuits and make them go away, but Trump’s going to fight them to the last appeal.
Yep. He's still fighting.
Trump and his university–which operated from 2005 through 2010, when it was shut down as the San Diego suits and multiple state attorneys general investigations were beginning–lured approximately 7,000 consumers into paying $1,495 to $34,995 for courses where, as the promotional material put it, Donald Trump’s “handpicked instructors” would teach them Trump’s “insider success secrets” of how to invest in real estate.
In October 2014 a New York judge found Trump personally liable for the institution's violation of state education laws. On December 10, 2015, Donald Trump gave a closed-door pretrial deposition with the fraud trial expected in May 2016 during the 2016 Republican Party presidential primaries. Trump has also made reference to the Hispanic ethnicity of the presiding judge, hinting at a possible bias. Attorney General Schneiderman responded in a statement calling Trump's allegations “racial demagoguery.”
In a separate class action civil suit in mid-February 2014, a San Diego federal judge allowed claimants in California, Florida, and New York to proceed. A Trump counterclaim, alleging that the state Attorney General's investigation was accompanied by a campaign donation shakedown, was investigated by a New York ethics board and dismissed in August 2015. Trump also filed a $1 million defamation suit against former Trump University student Tarla Makaeff, who had spent about $37,000 on seminars, after she joined the class action lawsuit and publicized her classroom experiences on social media. Unable to prove malice, Trump University lost an anti-SLAPP lawsuit (under statutes designed to thwart legal intimidation of class action participants) and was ordered by a U.S. District Judge in April 2015 to pay Makaeff and her lawyers $798,774.24 in legal fees and costs. "That just shows you how low they will go to silence people", Makaeff said.
Despite Trump's claim to have won much of the lawsuit, as of February 2016, all three lawsuits are still pending.
