    If he doesn’t, the state of New York will simply start seizing his property. If anything, the state of New York has proven that they’re not fucking around anymore.

        Does he even own it? I think it’s owned by someone else and they just license his name. He may have a stake (percentage) still, but I don’t think he even still owns a majority share.

      N.Y. might be seizing the property regardless with the results of the real estate fraud case.

      Wouldn’t the state take the property and say Trump doesn’t own it. Therefore Trump would be forced to sell OTHER properties to pay Carroll.

      A state is run by people and that can easily change. I don’t think they’re likely to seize assets before appeals.

        If Trump wants to appeal, he has to put the entire judgement amount, plus 20%, into escrow.

        If he wants to appeal, Trump will have to put up the assets for an appeal bond himself.

      I wish I could believe the authorities would have the balls to do their job and enforce laws and judgments against wealthy rapists, but they generally don’t

        i mean… you’re currently commenting on an article about Trump having been successfully prosecuted twice and what the plaintiff is going to do with the money from her judgement… so, the authorities did do their jobs in this case.
