Poised and patient on the witness stand, Ivanka Trump described how her husband, Jared Kushner, introduced her to Deutsche Bank's private wealth management division, for which she later became the Trump Organization's liaison and worked to arrange financing for the firm's purchase of the Doral golf club in Miami.

She was shown an email in which she told a different potential lender that "my father will send you his most recent financial statement," a potential indication of the document's importance despite former President Trump's prior testimony that the banks didn't care about his financial statements when deciding whether to loan him money.

"They were just something that you would have," Trump said during his testimony Monday about the statements at the center of the case.

Unlike her father and brothers, who, when they testified, were photographed by news photographers at the defense counsel table alongside their lawyers before taking the stand, Ivanka Trump appears to have avoided her courtroom photo opportunity.

While her father and brothers are defendants in the case, Ivanka Trump is a third-party witness. No photographers were allowed in the courtroom this morning.

"The people call Ivanka Trump," state attorney Louis Solomon said.

"Who's she?" Judge Arthur Engoron responded jokingly.

After a few awkward minutes of waiting, Ivanka Trump entered the courtroom, walked toward the judge, and took her place in the courtroom's witness box. She did not address or make eye contact with Letitia James as she passed the New York attorney general.

"Do you solemnly swear or affirm that any testimony you give will be the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth?" a court officer asked her.

"I do," she responded with her right hand raised.

Speaking to reporters outside court this morning, New York Attorney General Letitia James said that today's testimony will demonstrate that Ivanka Trump personally benefited from the fraud that a judge has ruled her family committed.

"We uncovered the scheme and she benefited from it personally," James told reporters. "And Ms. Trump will do all that she can to try to separate herself from his corporation, but she is inextricably tied to the Trump Organization and to these properties that she helped secure financing for."

James has taken a seat in the front row of the courtroom's gallery, feet from her team of lawyers at the state's counsel table.

A report issued Friday by the former judge appointed to serve as the Trump Organization's independent monitor by Judge Arthur Engoron found that the company has been cooperative, implemented some changes, and issued necessary corrections to financial statements; however, the report also outlined multiple errors and misstatements observed by the monitor over her 14 months in the role.

The report, by independent monitor Barbara Jones, was issued at the request of Judge Engoron ahead of his expected ruling in Trump's civil fraud trial.

"It is important to note that the Trump Organization acknowledged the disclosure issues described after I brought them to its attention and has been open to recommendations to improve accuracy and transparency," Jones wrote in her report.

However, Jones wrote, "Absent steps to address the items above, my observations suggest misstatements and errors may continue to occur, which could result in incorrect or inaccurate reporting of financial information to third parties."
