A New York appellate judge on Wednesday refused to halt collection of Donald Trump’s $454 million civil fraud penalty while he appeals, rejecting the former president’s request that he be allowed to post a bond covering just a fraction of what he owes.

Judge Anil Singh of the state’s mid-level appeals court ruled that Trump must post a bond covering the full amount in order to stop enforcement of the judgment. Singh did grant some of Trump’s requests, including pausing a three-year ban on him seeking loans from New York banks — which could help him secure the necessary bond.

Trump’s lawyers told the appellate court earlier Wednesday that Trump was prepared to post a $100 million bond, arguing that the lending ban in the Feb. 16 verdict made it impossible for him to secure a bond for the full amount.

Trump’s lawyers floated the smaller bond offer in court papers as they sought an order from the appellate court preventing New York Attorney General Letitia James’ office from enforcing the judgment while his appeal plays out. Singh ruled that Trump needs to post the full amount, which would pause collection automatically.

Don't you think he looks tired?

[–] groupofcrows@lemmy.ca 23 points 8 months ago (1 children)

He looks very unhealthy without his makeup.

He looks like he's lost a lot of weight too. Makes me wonder if he's just loading up on cocaine or something as he approaches an inevitable end.

Hopefully it's just stress destroying his body... fucker doesn't deserve a high.

I hope he dies really fucking slowly with the maximum amount of pain.

But hopefully with something that causes him to become too ill to make public appearances relatively quickly.

I don't think I can put up with another five years of him.
