Donald Trump<\/strong><\/a> has nabbed a major legal victory in his “yuge” civil fraud case … a New York appeals court has just thrown out a half-billion dollar judgment against the president.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

On Thursday, the New York appeals court announced the ruling with 5 judges voting to do away with the massive judgment — which was $355 million plus interest! In short, Trump stood to lose over $500 million … and large parts of his business empire, but not anymore.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

Why? Because the appeals court deemed the fine “excessive” … with some of the judges noting it could’ve violated DT’s Eighth Amendment rights — which protects citizens from excessive bail, fines, and cruel and unusual punishment.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

However, even though the monetary award was tossed, the judges refused to reverse the underlying fraud ruling against the president.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

This is just the tip of the legal iceberg facing Trump … the president is currently appealing his conviction in his criminal hush money case — which found him guilty on 34 felony counts.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

<\/p>\n

Nonetheless, we assume Team Trump is breathing a sigh of relief.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
