Arsenic Lupin posted:He has been found factually guilty of fraud. Not a lawyer, but I have heard it is very very rare for an appeals court to overturn findings of fact. At that point, he's supposed to be at risk of losing money. I guess we will find out in an hour or so.

Jethro posted:He's not asking them to not enforce the judgement, he's asking for them to accept a bond that is less than the full judgement, but still substantial, while the appeal is ongoing. Which sounds fair-ish to me given that he doesn't have total control over his finances, so it's not like he can just toss a $20 on the judge's desk and then get busy on moving the rest of his money to the Caymans or something. I’ll tell the State of New York it meets with your approval, forums poster Jethro. Maybe they’ll haggle with the criminally insane former game show host this time, as a treat.

Ms Adequate posted:Very funny to try to negotiate with the courts over your bond amount. I was going to say its a sign that Trump is radioactive to bondsmen if he can muster 20% or whatever and no one will take that in bond, but I'm wondering if that $100M is how much he can get with a bond. Either possibility is hilarious - he can scrounge $100 million but is such a notorious welcher that no bondsmen will take that for $460 million, or whatever he can scrounge together only buys $100 million worth of a bond

https://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/nyscef/ViewDocument?docIndex=ZWaAqAQogm6UhRjKc4u16A== The decision is out btw. No stay or ruduction on having to pay the money though the appeal judge did put a stay on a few other things, notable letting Eric and Don Jr. continue to serve on the board until the appeal is heard.

Specifically they put a stay on his ability to be an officer of a corporation (pending appeal) or to enter into new loans but did not put a stay on the financial judgement or the imposition of compliance. It looks like the only relief he got is permission to get a loan. Which, loving lol. Edit: looks like they also set a hearing date of March 18 to cover it in more detail, but given that their first shot out the door was 'get a loan you deadbeat' I don't think he has much going for him here.

When you apply for a loan is there a field for "Why are you requesting this loan?" and can you write "CRIMES"

Fork of Unknown Origins posted:This is an easy denial, right? Or do they make exceptions for large judgements like this? It's a classic legal maneuver to maximize your legal judgment so it's such a big number with all those digits the courts have no choice but to give you some time to think about it.

He wouldn't do this because this would mean when he loses the appeal he would have to sell MAL lol. I think he would rather sell every single other asset he has before he sells his Florida Whitehouse club.

mdemone posted:I know you're jesting but it's actually drat near impossible by any means to come up with half a billion in cash, legally or illegally, in 30 days. Yeah there's not a whole lot of non bank companies out there that have half a billion in cash just sitting around, and the ones that do typically have large payrolls and inventories. Which is what makes the bank loan ban a really interesting underreported aspect of the judgement. Even with the stay, nobody is going to touch that, so it really is going to come down to Trump having to sell off assets.

DarkHorse posted:Trump going for the floating point rollover glitch If Trump is subject to one more fraud it bugs out his ai and he becomes the living embodyment of peace and justice in our time. A reverse Gandhi, if you will. In other news, some of Bradley's texts have leaked to CNN. They are... Well: quote:Bradley also indicated that he didn’t want to be directly connected to the allegations and expressed a desire not to be named as the initial source of the information. And quote:You are my friend and I trust you... They will not... They're arrogant as F... She thinks they won the other day when she didn't have to be deposed. My hopes that this doesn't get the case dumpstered have gone up drastically. To me this looks like Bradley gossiping and telling his friend what she wanted to hear, only to end up on the stand because she had no one else, only for him to realize that perjuring himself is not a great look.

So... what happens if he can't pay this off? Considering the fraud is about over-valuing of assets, seems a real possibility even if he does sell everything he could come up short since no one has reason to believe anything he owns is actually worth what he claims.

At the end of the 30 days, the court-appointed monitor (who is already in control of all his stuff) begins to put it up for sale. We'll see what the market thinks it's worth. There's a real chance they run out of property to sell before paying off the whole fine. In that case, they'll have to set up garnishment

He wants to retain as much cash as possible so that's why he isn't paying because it would empty out every cent of cash he has plus an asset or two and even if he was lying about having 400 million in liquid cash on hand some how with an external appointed court monitor he will have enough plus his assets to cover the bill. There is no way he is that short even if they are overleveraged to gently caress and cause a cascading effect because he doesn't have collateral and or loses a lot of money to taxes.
