Trump’s Bond in Civil Fraud Case Lowered to $175M as Judge Sets April 15 Date for Hush Money Trial

HeadlineMar 26, 2024

A New York appeals court on Monday reduced Donald Trump’s bond to $175 million in his civil fraud case, down from $464 million, and gave Trump an extension of 10 days to pay it as he appeals the case. The ruling means New York Attorney General Letitia James will not be able to enforce the judgment against Trump just yet, including the seizure of his assets.

Separately, on Monday, a New York judge rescheduled the start of Trump’s hush money trial for April 15. Trump’s lawyers had sought to postpone his first criminal trial, arguing the recent release of over 100,000 pages of evidence made it impossible to prepare in time.
