Overview

• Trump’s lawyers filed a notice of appeal Tuesday to the New York Court of Appeals seeking to erase the remaining penalties from the civil fraud case.
• A fractured Appellate Division panel last week vacated roughly $500 million in monetary disgorgement but left liability findings and business restrictions in place.
• The surviving measures include a three-year ban on Trump serving in corporate leadership in New York, two-year director and officer bans for his sons, and a three-year prohibition on obtaining loans from New York–registered banks.
• Court-ordered oversight of the Trump Organization remains, with an independent monitor continuing for at least three years and a required compliance director.
• Attorney General Letitia James says she will ask the high court to restore the fine, and the current non-monetary penalties are paused during appeals with the option to extend the stay.
