Letitia James filed a ā€˜notice of exception to the sufficiency of the suretyā€™ seeking more information about Knight Specialty Insurance Company

Donald Trumpā€™sĀ $175m bondĀ in hisĀ New YorkĀ civil fraud case has been thrown into doubt by New York Attorney GeneralĀ Letitia JamesĀ after she filed a notice asking for evidence that the out-of-state firm that underwrote it really has the money to pay up.

Ms Jamesā€™s office submitted a ā€œnotice of exception to the sufficiency of the suretyā€ on Thursday asking for further proof that California-basedĀ Knight Specialty Insurance CompanyĀ (KSIC) has the capital to proceed on theĀ former presidentā€™s behalf.

KSIC is not regulated by New York state, which means that it is not authorised to issue surety bonds in the Empire State and therefore cannot obtain a certificate from the New York Department of Financial Services, which is customarily part of any bond package.

    Can your dump truck handle 33k kilos the class 8 I was looking at, says 11k max

    Even then, rounding to 50k in pennies is only 500 dollars per square foot. At 270 sqft, thatā€™s only 135k dollars per truck.

    At 175 million, itā€™d take 1.3k trips.
