Donald Trump appeared for a deposition Thursday as part of a high-stakes civil case brought by New York state against the former US president, some of his children and his sprawling business empire.

The former president answered numerous questions in the deposition with the New York attorney general's office, a source familiar with the matter said, sitting for nearly seven hours plus breaks.

The former president's deposition is part of the discovery process of the case, and his attorney said earlier Thursday that he was prepared to answer James' questions — a notable departure from his refusal to respond to questions from her team during a deposition that occurred a month before the suit was filed.

After Trump's first sit-down in August, the former president and his legal team have been able to glean more knowledge about the allegations against him because documents and other materials have been turned over to them.
