In a letter to U.S. District Judge Edgardo Ramos in the Southern District of New York, Trump attorney Patrick Strawbridge wrote that the president’s legal team and attorneys for the House were able to strike a deal on sharing the documents requesting financial records from Capital One and Deutsche Bank.
Strawbridge said in the letter that as a result of the agreement, he no longer believes that it will be necessary for the parties to appear before the federal judge in a hearing planned for Thursday.

Trump, his family members and his private businesses sued the banks last month to try to block them from complying with the subpoenas. Both banks have said that they will not comply with the request for documents until a judge makes a decision on whether to issue a preliminary injunction in the case.
The House committees behind the subpoenas have since intervened in the case, making them the target of the lawsuit.
Each of the financial institutions said in letters filed on Tuesday that they did not take a position in the legal battle.
