NY Attorney General Letitia James may seek the sale of 13 Trump properties, including the Seven Springs estate and Westchester Golf Club, if Donald Trump fails to pay his $457 million fraud judgment by the March 25 deadline. The properties, located across Manhattan and Westchester County, could be auctioned off by county sheriff's departments if Trump does not pay, secure an appeal bond, or declare bankruptcy.
New York Attorney General Letitia James is taunting former President Donald Trump over the mounting interest he may owe on his $355 million civil fraud judgment, tweeting a running tally of the money he potentially now owes. Trump's legal team has filed a notice of appeal to overturn the ruling, which also saw him banned from doing business in New York for three years. James has vowed not to shy away from going after Trump's assets if he can't come up with the money or refuses to pay up, while Trump has accused James of launching a political "witch hunt" and claimed the justice system had been weaponized against him.
New York Attorney General Letitia James has vowed to seek a judge's approval to seize Donald Trump's assets, including some of his prized New York City properties, if he fails to pay the $355 million judgment against him. Trump, who is appealing the ruling, and others were ordered to pay a combined $364 million, including interest, and James is confident in the ruling's validity. The case alleged that Trump inflated his assets to secure better loan terms, and James emphasized that financial frauds are not victimless crimes, stating that the same consequences should apply to former presidents as they would to average citizens.
