A New York judge sided with the state’s attorney general Letitia James’s request that former president Donald Trump pay $10,000 for each day that he flouts a subpoena into a tax probe by her office.
Ms James’s office filed a motion with the state Supreme Court earlier this month, saying the sum was “sufficient to coerce his compliance” with a court order put in place in February. This comes after Judge Arthur Engoron said in a ruling that the former president and his children Don Jr and Ivanka needed to testify in an investigation from the attorney general’s office.”
