NY AG says she may seize Trump assets if he doesn’t pay $355 million fine
The Hill ^ | 02/20/2024 | Nick Robertson

New York Attorney General Letitia James (D) is prepared to seize former President Trump’s assets if he does not pay the nearly $355 million verdict levied against him in a civil business fraud trial last week, she told ABC News on Tuesday.

“If he does not have funds to pay off the judgment, then we will seek judgment enforcement mechanisms in court, and we will ask the judge to seize his assets,” she told ABC News.

The $355 million verdict and additional $100 million in prejudgment interest handed down Friday are the largest financial penalty levied against Trump and his companies amid his various legal cases. Legal experts have speculated that the massive penalty could require Trump to sell some of his real estate empire.

I think there’s no danger of someone reaching out to seize Latetia’s assets. No matter in what jurisdiction it sets.

This is a ticking time bomb. It will be exciting to see how this unravels. Justice is NOT being served. WHO will be the brave person to tell the Emperor he has no clothes.

Bottom line...Letitia James wants his destruction or she doesn’t get paid.

A moment of reflection while we are not in hot war in our country....

The Confiscation Acts of 1861 and 1862.
When Congress again convened in December, Senator Lyman Trumbull of Illinois, chairman of the Judiciary Committee, proposed a more comprehensive confiscation bill. On December 2, 1861, Trumbull introduced the Confiscation Act of 1862 to allow for seizure of all Confederate property, whether or not it had been used to support the rebellion.

If an event like this occurs, there is a possibility that illegals could be residing in the properties.

This woman is just not very smart. She has pissed off powerful, powerful people around the globe that she never heard of and never will. They will absolutely crush her before this farcical action is over. She will be lucky if she is not sharing a cell with Big Fanny.

With no law license, she will be lucky to get a job stocking shelves at Walmart.

I’m guessing Trump will appeal the case and post a supersedeas /appeal/stay bond and therefore protecting his assets.

I can say on the open Interweb what I think should happen to this extremely radical corrupt DA and her cohort in crime, the fully corrupt judge but I bet you can imagine it.

Needless to say, they would not ever get out of a supermax prison. That would be the most lenient sentence.
