The suits had alleged that Trump University failed to deliver the quality real estate investing education it promised.
Schneiderman says the $25 million to be paid by Trump or one of his business entities includes restitution for students and $1 million in penalties to the state. The deal doesn’t require Trump to acknowledge wrongdoing.
Messages left with Trump’s attorneys weren’t immediately returned. Trump has strongly denied the allegations and said during the campaign that he wouldn’t settle.
Although a substantial amount compared to my footings, this is "Go Away" money. My assumption is that Mr. SHNEYE’-dur-muhn will now turn his attentions to McDonalds and Hamburger University.
