Donald Trump has invoked the Fifth Amendment and refused to answer questions in a long-running New York civil investigation into his business dealings.
The probe, led by Attorney General Letitia James, involves allegations of a decade-long pattern of financial misstatements by the Trump Organisation.
An hour after he arrived at James' office, Trump issued a statement saying he took his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination.
The deposition comes just days after FBI agents searched his Florida estate in an unrelated federal operation concerning his handling of classified documents.
Washington correspondent Kate Fisher spoke to Corin Dann.
