A New York judge peppered Donald Trump's lawyers with questions Friday as they tried to persuade the court to throw out a civil lawsuit brought by New York's attorney general accusing the former president and his company of deceiving banks, insurers and others by exaggerating his wealth.

At times, Judge Arthur Engoron argued with Trump attorney Christopher Kise. In one case the judge ended a back-and-forth by simply saying, "Disagree."

At one point, Engoron reminded those in the packed courtroom that he was trying to be fair to both sides, suggesting that the tenor of his questioning shouldn't be seen as an indication of how he will ultimately rule.Last week, Trump's attorneys filed a lawsuit accusing Engoron of abusing his authority, one of several lawsuits Trump has filed against the judges overseeing his various trials.

Among the allegations made by James were that Trump claimed his Trump Tower apartment in Manhattan -- a three-story penthouse replete with gold-plated fixtures -- was nearly three times its actual size and valued the property at US$327 million. No apartment in New York City has ever sold for close to that amount, James said.
