JPMorgan Says Trump’s $5 Billion Suit ‘Fraudulently’ Includes Dimon

JPMorgan Chase & Co. said President Donald Trump improperly named the bank’s chief executive officer, Jamie Dimon, as a defendant in his lawsuit over closure of his accounts in order to file the case in Florida state court.

In a Thursday court filing, the bank sought to move the case to federal court in Miami and said it would eventually seek to transfer it to New York. JPMorgan said Trump’s allegation that Dimon directed the bank to put Trump and his businesses on a “blacklist” was not permitted under the Florida statute cited by the president.
