Former President Donald Trump and his business, the Trump Organization, have been ordered by a New York judge to pay over $350 million in penalties for misrepresenting Trump's wealth for financial gain. The judge also barred Trump from serving in a top role of any New York company for three years and barred his sons from holding positions as officers or directors of a New York company for two years. The case stemmed from a state probe into low-interest financing deals Trump made with lenders before his political career. Trump has denounced the case as a partisan abuse of the justice system and plans to appeal the decision. [Extracted from the article]
