New York Attorney General Letitia James pleaded not guilty to charges of mortgage fraud during an arraignment hearing in Norfolk, Virginia, on Oct. 24. Her trial date is set for Jan. 26, 2026.

James addressed supporters outside the courthouse after the hearing, saying the case was not about herself but reflected “a justice system which has been weaponized, a justice system which has been used as a tool of revenge.”
