Donald Trump's Civil Fraud Trial Judgment

Judge Arthur Engoron released a judgment in Donald Trump’s civil fraud trial, imposing a fine of $355 million and banning Trump from serving in a top role at any New York corporation for three years. The ruling was based on Trump and the Trump Organization persistently inflating the value of their assets on financial documents submitted to banks. Trump faces financial setbacks with this ruling, along with previous defamation fines. The judgment marks the end of a six-month drama that began with a pretrial ruling last September.
