A New York judge on Wednesday said he would lift a civil contempt ruling against President Donald Trump on the condition that he pays a $110,000 fine to the New York Attorney General’s office for not complying with a subpoena.
Judge Arthur Engoron said in a virtual hearing that a $10,000-per-day fine that was imposed on Trump in late April stopped accruing on May 6 when the former president filed court papers saying they took steps to find documents in connection to Attorney General Letitia James’ investigation, according to reporters.
Engoron said that Trump has until May 20 to comply with the conditions.
