New York notifies suburban county of Trump fraud judgment as possible seizures loom
New York state Attorney General Letitia James this month made an official notification of the civil fraud court award against Donald Trump in suburban Westchester County, where he owns property, according to county clerk records, in what could be a preliminary step toward seizures in the case.
The former U.S. president faces a Monday deadline to post a bond covering a $454 million civil judgment against him for overstating his net worth and the value of his real estate properties to dupe investors and lenders, or risk state authorities seizing his assets while he appeals.
Westchester, just north of New York City, is home to the Trump Organization’s Seven Springs estate, as well as the Trump National Golf Course Westchester.
