Judge issues terse rejection of Trump's demand to pause $355M fine payment

0

Judge Arthur Engoron has refused to pause the deadline for Donald Trump to pay damages in his New York fraud case.

In a ruling on Thursday, Engoron rejected Trump's motion for a 30-day delay before he would begin paying the $355 million judgment against him. It means that the more Trump waits to pay, the more interest piles up, Just Security's Adam Klasfeld revealed online.

On Monday, Trump's lawyers asked Engoron to pause the fine, but Attorney General Letitia James responded that the judge's ruling on Friday made it clear there isn't "any basis" for the stay.

In an email to Trump attorney Cliff Robert, Engoron was short.

"You have failed to explain, much less justify, any basis for a stay," he wrote.

The decision comes after an ABC News Interview in which James said the state would move to seize Trump's assets if the fine isn't paid.

"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. "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."
