Donald Trump was ordered to pay more than $400 million damages in a civil business fraud lawsuit lodged by New York Attorney General Letitia James.

The New York Attorney General's office asked a judge to void a $175 million bond posted by former President Donald Trump to secure a much larger monetary damage award in his civil business fraud case.

The AG's office in a court filing said that Trump and other defendants in the case had failed to show there is enough identifiable collateral to back the bond. The New York Attorney General's office on Friday asked a judge to void a $175 million bond posted by former President Donald Trump to secure a much larger monetary damage award in his civil business fraud case.

The AG's office in a filing said that Trump and other defendants in the case had failed to show there is enough identifiable collateral to back the bond for the judgment in Manhattan Supreme Court. The filing notes that the surety Trump used to obtain the bond, Knight Specialty Insurance Company, is"a small insurer that is not authorized to write business in New York and thus not regulated by the state's insurance department, had never before written a surety bond in New York or in the prior two years in any other jurisdiction, and has a total policyholder surplus of just $138 million."This is breaking news.
