Rather than post a bond for the total amount, Trump offered to secure a $100 million bond, arguing he would need to sell properties to pay the full amount. However, Judge Anil Singh declined to issue the stay of the penalties, leaving the larger question of Trump’s delay to a full panel of appellate judges.
