Trump ordered to pay $454 million in fraud case
Former president's lawyers fail to secure half-billion dollar bond
A New York judge on Friday formally ordered Donald Trump to pay $454 million including interest, a move that will give the former president one final chance to avoid a contempt of court finding.
The clerk in New York has officially entered a more than $464 million fraud judgment against former President Donald Trump and three of his children, including Ivanka.
Trump's lawyers disclosed on Monday that he had failed to secure a roughly half-billion dollar bond in his civil fraud case in New York.
The $454 million that Trump is now ordered to pay includes interest that has accrued since the judgment was first entered in December 2022.
If Trump does not pay the judgment within 30 days, he could be held in contempt of court and fined or imprisoned.
