New York civil fraud judgment and August 2025 reversal of penalty

On February 16, 2024, New York Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron ordered Donald Trump and co-defendants to pay about $464 million ($354,868,768 in disgorgement plus $98.6 million in prejudgment interest) for persistent financial statement fraud. On August 21, 2025, the Appellate Division First Department threw out the entire monetary penalty as constitutionally excessive in a 323-page opinion (5-0 on the penalty, divided on liability). The case is on further appeal to the New York Court of Appeals; the underlying liability finding was not vacated.
