Former President Donald Trump has been held in civil contempt of court and ordered to pay a fine of $10,000 a day until he complies with the court's orders to turn over key documents.
Trump had been ordered to turn over documents to New York Attorney General Letitia James for her investigation into his business practices, but he has failed to comply. Nearly three weeks ago, James filed a motion requesting that the court hold him in contempt.
