That was quick! Despite Donald Trump’s attempt to delay the enforcement of the $350+ million civil fraud judgment, Judge Arthur Engoron has denied Trump’s request in a short email to his attorney Clifford Robert.
The email notes that Trump failed to justify any basis for a stay of the judgment and asserted that the appellate courts will protect any rights Trump has. This email comes just hours after the New York Attorney General’s Office slammed Trump’s attempt to delay the enforcement of the judgment.
Trump will now be forced to seek review of the judgment from the appellate courts in New York.
