Donald Trump Jr has found himself named as a possible defendant in the ongoing bankruptcy case of Chinese billionaire Miles Guo, who is currently facing a slew of legal troubles.
Guo Bankruptcy
Guo, also known as Guo Wengui and Miles Kwok, filed for bankruptcy in February 2022 following a $134 million fine for violating a court order related to his yacht.
This development has raised eyebrows in the legal community, as Trump Jr’s connection to the case remains unclear.
Trump Jr’s Inclusion in the Case
In a surprising turn, Donald Trump Jr’s name surfaced in court documents related to Miles Guo’s bankruptcy case. Recently obtained by the Daily Beast, these documents included Trump Jr in a list of possible defendants.

Former Trump White House adviser Peter Navarro was also featured on this list. The reasons behind their inclusion remain a mystery, and neither Trump Jr nor Navarro has provided an immediate response for comment.
Possible Implications
Legal experts have weighed in on this development, emphasizing that being included in the list of possible defendants does not automatically imply criminal accusations.
Might Have Received Assets
Those listed could range from individuals who know the case to those who might have received assets under questionable circumstances. Trump Jr and Navarro are just two of many names listed in the sprawling 25-page document.
Future Legal Actions
As the bankruptcy case evolves, legal observers anticipate that some individuals or entities listed may face specific allegations.
Adversary Proceedings
In such cases, “adversary proceedings” would be filed if wrongdoing is suspected. This allows further legal actions against those named in the case.
Guo’s Ongoing Legal Woes
Miles Guo is awaiting trial on a litany of charges, including a $1 billion fraud conspiracy. He has pleaded not guilty to 11 counts, encompassing wire fraud, securities fraud, bank fraud, and money laundering. These legal troubles have further complicated his financial situation, leading to the bankruptcy filing earlier this year.

Connections to Conservative Figures
Miles Guo’s financial ties to prominent conservative figures have been a subject of interest. Notably, he has associated with Steve Bannon, the former White House chief strategist during the Trump administration. The nature of these ties and their potential relevance to the bankruptcy case remains to be seen.
Guo’s Denial and Legal Battle
Miles Guo maintains his innocence in the face of the charges brought against him. His legal battle encompasses many financial crimes, and his defense strategy remains a closely watched aspect of the ongoing proceedings.
