Kushner’s net worth has been estimated at more than $300 million.The husband of Trump’s eldest daughter, Ivanka, Kushner is a real estate mogul who earned more than $1.7 million in 2015 before working in the White House, according to The New York Times.

Kushner has not been accused of any criminal wrongdoing, but like many Trump campaign advisers he has sought legal advice during investigations from the special counsel’s office and Congress into Russian interference in the 2016 campaign.

Kushner was also named as a defendant in an April civil suit filed by the Democratic National Committee (DNC), alleging an international conspiracy involving Russia’s attempts to interfere in the campaign.

The suit’s defendants included the Russian government, WikiLeaks and the Trump campaign, including Trump’s eldest son, Donald Trump Jr. Don John Trump'Tiger King' star Joe Exotic requests pardon from Trump: 'Be my hero please' Zaid Jilani discusses Trump's move to cancel racial sensitivity training at federal agencies Trump International Hotel in Vancouver closes permanently MORE

Lowell filed a motion in December asking a judge to remove Kushner from the lawsuit because it “does not contain a single factual allegation implicating Kushner in the alleged wrongdoing.”
