TL;DR

Former President Donald Trump has posted a $91.6 million bond to appeal a ruling against him in a civil defamation case brought by author E. Jean Carroll, for which he was ordered to pay $83.3 million. The bond, guaranteed by insurance company Chubb, is 110 percent of the owed amount as required by the court. Trump's legal troubles also include a separate civil fraud case in which he was found liable for $454 million in damages to the state of New York, and his offer to post a $100 million bond was rejected by the judge, who insisted on the full amount for an appeal.
