From The Washington Post:
Donald Trump, who lost a civil fraud case in New York last month, must put up a bond of nearly half-a-billion dollars if he wants to stop New York Attorney General Letitia James (D) from collecting while he appeals. James is poised to begin claiming his assets if he fails to put up the bond by Monday.
That's tomorrow.
CNN has this about the process:
Experts who spoke to CNN say Attorney General Letitia James and her staff should be poised to start the complicated legal maze of seizing Trump’s assets if the former president does not secure the bonds needed to cover Engoron’s ruling as he appeals.
Assets, such as buildings, houses, cars, helicopters and his plane, are in play. The main focus could be on his bank accounts, which experts say will be easier to take hold of, and properties, which would be more difficult.
Again. This should start tomorrow.
But then there's this:
“I’ve never seen a stupider litigant.” Lawrence O’Donnell and Andrew Weissmann can’t believe how stupid Trump is for bragging he has $500 million in cash, while telling the court he cannot pay nearly $500 million. (Video: MSNBC) pic.twitter.com/1lxeKMM9iz

Ok. So start there.
Tomorrow.
