Former President Donald Trump has taken a significant step in the E. Jean Carroll defamation case by posting a bond of nearly $92 million. This move comes as Trump faces a looming deadline of March 25th to put up an additional $454 million in the New York Attorney General's civil fraud case.
Trump's bond in the E. Jean Carroll case was posted in court this morning for $91.6 million, allowing him to appeal the jury award of $83.3 million. The slight difference in amount accounts for the interest Trump must pay for posting the bond. The bond has been secured by the reputable global insurance company, Chubb, easing concerns about the source of the funds.
