A filing in New York federal court by property owner Orestes Fintiklis alleges that President Donald Trump’s hotel management company evaded income and social security taxes when it managed the former Trump Ocean Club International Hotel & Tower. The filing does not state how much in taxes the Trump company allegedly should have paid. The Trump Organization said that it did not evade any taxes and, if anything, Fintiklis is to blame on tax matters. “To the extent any taxes were to be withheld, it was the responsibility of the condominium that owns the hotel. The Trump Organization’s only role was to manage the property,” Trump Organization spokeswoman Kimberly Benza said in an emailed statement.
