Trump legal news brief: Judge Engoron rejects Trump’s request to delay paying $355 million fraud judgment

Judge Arthur Engoron rejects a motion by former President Donald Trump that would have granted him a 30-day delay to begin paying the massive $355 million financial fraud judgment against him. That means that the interest on the fines continues to accrue. Here are the latest courtroom developments involving the former president who is hoping to be reelected to the White House in 2024.

Judge Engoron rejects Trump request to delay payment of $355 million judgment

Key players: Judge Arthur Engoron, New York Attorney General Letitia James, New York special counsel Andrew Amer

On Thursday, Engoron informed lawyers for the Trump family that he would not grant a 30-day delay to begin paying a massive $355 million judgment against Trump.

“You have failed to explain, much less justify, any basis for a stay,” Engoron wrote.

On Wednesday, Trump’s lawyers asked the judge for the delay, blaming James for not indicating when they should begin paying the massive fines, UPI reported.

"The attorney general has not filed any motion on notice, nor moved to settle the proposed judgment; her unseemly rush to memorialize a 'judgment' violates all accepted practice in New York state court," Trump's lawyers said.

James, in a Tuesday interview with ABC News, said that if Trump did not promptly fork over the millions in penalties imposed by Engoron, the state would look to seize his real estate assets.

"If he does not have funds to pay off the judgment, then we will seek judgment enforcement mechanisms in court, and we will ask the judge to seize his assets," James said, adding, "We are prepared to make sure that the judgment is paid to New Yorkers, and yes, I look at 40 Wall Street [a Lower Manhattan Trump property] each and every day."
