A New York appeals court on Wednesday denied Donald Trump's request to freeze the $454 million judgment he faces in his civil fraud case, leaving the former president in financial hot water.
Trump's attorneys asked the appeals court to permit him to post a $100 million bond, in which an outside company would promise Trump would eventually pay the judgement because it would be "impossible" for him to secure one for the full amount, the lawyers said, per The New York Times. But a single appellate judge assigned to the petition, Anil Singh, rebuffed the former president Wednesday.
