A New York appeals court has given Donald Trump 10 more days to post his bond as he appeals the civil fraud judgment against him and cut the amount necessary to $175 million.
It’s a major lifeline for the former president, who, along with his adult sons and his company, were fined more than $464 million, including interest, after Judge Arthur Engoron found Trump and his co-defendants fraudulently inflated the value of his assets.
The ruling staves off the prospect, for now, of New York Attorney General Letitia James seeking to seize the former president’s property to enforce the judgment against him. Trump had been struggling to come up with the means to post a bond of more than $500 million, the total that he would have needed before Monday’s appellate decision.
…
The ruling stated that the $175 million bond will be in place until at least September, meaning James won’t be able to seek to enforce the judgment against Trump until then.
Only if you can be white and rich and male, “Justice” system will let you do anything and get away with it.
Do you have examples of poor hispanic women that didn’t get their bond reduced in this fashion?
Have you ever looked at the numbers? Our system is sexust against men - men consistently serve longer sentences than women, including being incarcerated at all.much more often than women are. Being male is bad for you in court.
