Potential consequences for Donald Trump following civil fraud trial
Former President Donald Trump could face the government selling many of his properties at 'fire sale prices' if he refuses to pay fines issued after a civil fraud trial in New York. Trump and his associates were ordered to pay nearly $355 million in fines for overvaluing properties and exaggerating net worth to secure loans. Trump denied wrongdoing, plans to appeal, and has 30 days to pay or secure a bond.
