The dispute is the latest development in the story of Trump's taxes in Chicago. Alderman Ed Burke, the longest-serving member of Chicago's City Council in history, served as Trump's lawyer for more than a decade. His firm originally filed the tax appeal arguing the value of Trump's building had been overestimated.
Burke, a Democrat, helped Trump secure $14 million in tax breaks on his Chicago skyscraper before parting ways with Trump's company in 2018, The Chicago Tribune reported.
Later that year, the FBI raided Burke's City Hall office and he was later charged with racketeering, bribery, and extortion, among other charges.
