Trump’s civil fraud trial in New York to get down to business after fiery first day
- Former President Donald Trump is currently facing a $250 million business fraud trial, in which he and his company are accused of overvaluing assets in order to obtain better loan terms and tax perks.
- Trump's behavior during the trial has led to a gag order being issued by the judge after he made derogatory comments about the court clerk and accused her of bias. The judge also ordered Trump to delete a social media post and banned him from targeting his aides.
- The trial is being conducted without a jury, with Judge Engoron solely responsible for delivering verdicts. Trump has expressed frustration with this, claiming he is not entitled to a jury.
