Trump's legal troubles right now in New York State fit this pattern.
Indeed, Trump has a history of getting nailed for fraud by attorneys
general in New York. There was the Trump University fraud case, which
settled for $25 million in 2016, and the Trump Foundation fraud case
in 2018, which settled for $2 million. Judge Engoron referenced these
cases in his opinion ("This is not Defendants' first rodeo"), and
factored them into his $454 judgment. He might also have mentioned a
2010 lawsuit involving the attorney general over false information
that Donald Jr. and Ivanka Trump furnished to the purchasers of
condominiums in Trump SoHo. That case, which was settled for an
undisclosed sum, very nearly led to criminal indictments for the Trump
children (who were foolish enough to discuss their deception in
emails).
