Former President Donald Trump has been ordered to pay the New York Times nearly $400,000 in legal fees after his unsuccessful lawsuit against the paper that alleged an “insidious plot” to obtain his personal tax records.
New York Supreme Court Justice Robert Reed wrote in a decision posted on the court docket on Friday that “the court finds that $392,638.69 is a reasonable value” for the legal fees that the paper and three of its reporters incurred in a lawsuit that the former lost last year.
