ftwitty/Getty Images(NEW YORK) — Allen Weisselberg, the ex-chief financial officer of former President Donald Trump’s family real estate company, will plead guilty Monday to perjury charges that resulted from his testimony during Trump’s civil fraud trial, sources familiar with the matter told ABC News. The terms of the plea remain sealed until Weisselberg appears in court Monday. During his testimony, Weisselberg struggled to explain why Trump’s Fifth Avenue Manhattan triplex, which is less than 11,000 square feet, was listed on Trump’s statements of financial condition as 30,000 square feet. “It was almost de minimis relative to his net worth, so I didn’t really focus on it,” Weisselberg said during the trial. Trump has pleaded not guilty and denied all wrongdoing.
