The judge overseeing the $355 million civil fraud case has denied Donald Trump’s request to delay the judgment for a month.
Judge Arthur Engoron told lawyers for Trump and the New York attorney general of his intentions in an email sent Thursday.
Once the judgment is officially entered, it will start the 30-day clock for Trump to file an appeal.
In the email, Engoron rejected Trump’s request for an additional 30 days, writing, “You have failed to explain, much less justify, any basis for a stay.”
“The proposed judgment accurately reflects the spirit and letter of the February 16 Decision and Order,” the judge wrote.
The judge directed the monitor to recommend a person to serve as an independent compliance director for the Trump Organization.
