Former President Donald Trump is facing challenges in securing a bond for the $454 million he owes in a civil fraud case. His lawyers claim they cannot secure an appeals bond that covers the full amount, but the New York attorney general's office disputes this, citing examples of multiple billion-dollar judgments where surety companies provided bonds for larger amounts. Trump's financial situation and the looming deadline to post a bond or pay money into a court-controlled account are raising questions about how he will meet the judgment. The case involves misstating the value of assets for personal gain, with Trump and his associates being found liable. The ex-president's net worth, estimated at $2.6 billion, may not be enough to cover the full amount. The developments in this case will be closely watched as the legal battle continues.
