Trump has 30 days after Judge Arthur Engoron’s verdict to post bond to appeal his judgment.
Former President Donald Trump’s attorneys filed a notice of appeal of Judge Arthur Engoron’s ruling in his New York civil business fraud case, but the notice did not mention the bond he would need to post for an appeal.
New York State Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron on Friday ordered Trump to pay $354.9 million in penalties after previously siding with New York Attorney General Letitia James in her civil lawsuit against the former president’s businesses. James, a Democrat, accused Trump and top executives at his family company, The Trump Organization, of conspiring to increase his net worth by billions of dollars on financial statements provided to banks and insurers to make deals and secure loans.
Trump has maintained he did not engage in any wrongdoing, accusing James of targeting him for political purposes.
On Monday, his legal team filed the notice of appeal of the judgment on behalf of Trump, his adult sons and two Trump Organization executives, appealing the $464 million judgment and other « far reaching » relief.
