"New York AG Seeks Lifetime Ban for Trump, Citing Martin Shkreli Ruling"

New York Attorney General Letitia James is seeking a lifetime ban for former President Donald Trump from the state's real estate industry, citing a recent appeals court ruling against Martin Shkreli as supporting precedent. The ruling upheld a lower court's lifetime ban on Shkreli from the pharmaceuticals industry due to antitrust violations. James is currently suing Trump for alleged business fraud and is pushing for a lifetime ban, along with fines, for him and his sons. The legal connection between Shkreli and Trump stems from their controversial online behavior and real-world actions, despite their initial public clashes.
