The New York attorney general’s office has filed judgments in Westchester County, where former President Trump’s golf resort and private estate known as Seven Springs is located — a first step toward seizing the asset.
The judgments were filed with the Westchester County clerk’s office March 6, public records show. Judge Arthur Engoron, who oversaw the sweeping civil fraud trial against Trump and his business, formally entered his multimillion-dollar judgment just a over week earlier.
Engoron ruled that Trump, the Trump Organization and top executives, including two of Trump’s sons — Eric and Donald Jr. — were liable for fraud after conspiring to alter the former president’s net worth for tax and insurance benefits. He ordered them to pay $464 million, plus interest, in total.
