Donald Trump founded Trump University to teach real estate investing using his name and claims of expertise. However, Trump had little meaningful involvement and did not handpick instructors as promised. State regulators warned the name "Trump University" was illegal and misleading since it was not a licensed university. Plaintiff alleges Trump University engaged in deceptive practices and violated RICO laws. The lawsuit seeks damages for victims nationwide who were misled by Trump University's fraudulent marketing and illegal operation.
