The verdict in New York state’s $370 million civil fraud trial against former President Donald Trump may not come until mid-February, the court said Friday — two days after the judge missed a self-imposed deadline to issue his decision in the case.
Trump, the likely Republican nominee for the November presidential election, has been highly critical of the non-jury trial since it wrapped up Jan. 11, issuing public comments accusing Justice Arthur Engoron of bias and lobbing insults at New York Attorney General Letitia James, who filed the suit.
