Deutsche Bank says it has tax returns related to Trump subpoena
In a letter sent to a New York federal appeals court on Tuesday, Deutsche Bank confirmed that if it responds to a House subpoena related to President Trump, lawmakers will see people's tax returns, CNN reports.
The House has requested Deutsche Bank turn over financial records for Trump; his children Donald Trump Jr., Ivanka Trump, and Eric Trump; other close relatives; the Trump Organization; a Trump trust; and additional Trump businesses. The tax returns might belong to individual Trump family members, but Deutsche Bank would not publicly reveal the names, saying there are "statutory, contractual, and privacy concerns." The bank did tell the court whose tax returns would be handed over to lawmakers, but the names are redacted from the public record.
Trump has been fighting the subpoena, as well as one the House sent to Capital One seeking financial records for Trump, the Trump Organization, Trump's trust, and several Trump hotels and businesses. In a letter to the court, Capital One said it does not have any tax returns related to its subpoena.
