CNN —A New York judge ordered Donald Trump to pay $392,638 in legal fees to The New York Times after his failed lawsuit against the news outlet and its journalists over the disclosure of his tax information in a 2018 Times article, according to court documents.
“The revised anti-SLAPP law was specifically designed to apply to lawsuits like this one,” Judge Reed wrote.
Donald Trump alleges she broke a prior settlement agreement when she gave his tax records to the New York Times reporter.
The judge also denied Mary Trump’s applications to be reimbursed for legal fees in that order.
An attorney for Mary Trump declined to comment on the ruling Friday.
