Former President Donald Trump has been cleared of contempt of court, a New York judge ruled on June 29.

New York Supreme Court Judge Arthur Engoron found Trump in contempt in April for not responding to a subpoena issued by New York Attorney General Letitia James, who began investigating the Trump Organization in 2019.
