Former president Donald Trump posted a $175 million bond in his New York civil fraud case on Monday. In Febuary, Judge Arthur Engoron ruled that Trump lied about his wealth for years and ordered him to pay more than $454 million in fines. Trump’s bond payment halted the state from beginning to seize his assets to satisfy the debt. 

Alina Habba, one of Trump’s lawyers said, “As promised, President Trump has posted bond.” She continued, “He looks forwards to vindicating his rights on appeal and overturning this unjust verdict.”
