Donald Trump has appealed a New York judge’s ruling that ordered him to pay $454 million in penalties for fraudulently inflating his net worth in financial statements.
The judge found Trump committed civil fraud.
Trump has denied wrongdoing and vehemently claimed political bias.
If upheld, the penalties could significantly impact Trump’s finances as he runs for president again.
Trump also faces other legal challenges including criminal charges in multiple cases related to business practices, attempts to overturn the 2020 election, and handling of classified documents.
