New York Attorney General Letitia James has made it clear that she is ready to take drastic measures to ensure that former President Donald Trump pays his $354 million civil fraud fine. In a recent court filing, James stated that if Trump is unable to come up with the funds to settle the fine, she is prepared to seize his buildings in order to satisfy the debt.
The civil fraud case against Trump stems from allegations that he inflated the value of his assets in order to secure loans and obtain tax benefits. The investigation, which has been ongoing for several years, has uncovered evidence that Trump engaged in a pattern of deceptive practices in order to bolster his financial standing.
James has been relentless in her pursuit of justice in this case, and she has made it clear that she will not back down until Trump pays what he owes. In her court filing, James argued that Trump’s buildings are fair game for seizure because they were purchased with the proceeds of his fraudulent activities.
While Trump has denied any wrongdoing and has vowed to fight the charges, James remains undeterred. She has assembled a team of top legal experts to assist in the case, and she is confident that justice will be served.
If Trump is unable to come up with the funds to settle the fine, it remains to be seen which of his properties could be targeted for seizure. Trump Tower in New York City, Mar-a-Lago in Florida, and his golf courses around the country are all potential targets.
Regardless of the outcome, Letitia James has proven herself to be a formidable opponent to Trump and a fierce advocate for justice. Her determination to hold him accountable for his actions sets a powerful example for other public officials and serves as a reminder that no one is above the law.
