Highlights
  • The New York appellate division overturned President Trump's civil fraud penalty, saying disgorgement was an excessive fine that violates the Eighth Amendment.
  • The court did not exonerate Trump; it affirmed that James acted within her authority and kept non-monetary sanctions to curb business practices.
  • This reversal is seen as a significant legal development in how New York law was applied in the case, suggesting limits on penalties against high-profile defendants.
