Letitia James can target any Donald Trump assets "across the world": Lawyer
The former president has to post a $454 million bond by Monday or his assets will be seized by the New York attorney general.
New York Attorney General Letitia James can target any of former President Donald Trump's assets from "across the world" in order to pay the $454 million judgment he owes, according to lawyer Renee Zaytsev on Saturday.
In February, Judge Arthur Engoron ordered Trump to pay $355 million, plus interest, and barred him from doing business in New York for three years after finding him liable for financial fraud in September 2023 in a lawsuit brought on by James' office. Trump, the presumed GOP presidential nominee in the 2024 election, has claimed that he has done nothing wrong and that the case is politically motivated against him. He has appealed Engoron's judgment.
Meanwhile, the former president has until Monday to come up with a $454 million bond to stop James from seizing his assets in order to pay Engoron's judgment.
MSNBC's Katie Phang asked Zaytsev onThe Katie Phang Show on Saturday about what James could do if Trump can't come up with the bond.

Scotland absolutely fucking hates Trump so I think they would be very happy to overcome the legal friction with the sale of his Scottish courses if it came to that.
But I think most likely she'll target US properties & assets first for obvious reasons, in her own state first but anywhere is fair game - a judgement in state of New York is enforceable anywhere even if there are requirements and legal effort to "domesticate" it to target state to enforce it. I will be very amused if Mar a Lago is seized though knowing Trump he'll try to pretend the thing is his "homestead" despite it having non-residential status and he himself only living there through a loophole.
I really hope she goes after Mar a-Lago, and is successful.
Yeah I remembered the Scots came up with some high grade protest signs. A google image search for 'anti trump sign Scotland' give some real winners. My favourite
have the state declare that the golf courses have a fair market value of 2 dozen haggis.
