Ex-president’s efforts to secure a bond include ‘approaching about 30 surety companies through 4 separate brokers’, lawyers say in court filing
Donald Trump’s lawyers have asked the appeals court to delay posting the bond to cover the $464m fraud judgment against him until his appeal of the case is over.
The former president’s lawyers filed notices of appeal late last month challenging Judge Arthur Engoron’s 16 February verdict that he lied about his wealth as he grew the real estate empire that launched him to stardom and the presidency.
