Former US President Donald Trump was ordered on Friday, January 12, to pay $392,638 (approximately 358,000 euros) to The New York Times and journalists of the daily in legal costs after his lawsuits against them were dismissed .
Donald Trump filed a complaint against The New York Times in September 2021, accusing three of the newspaper's journalists of an “insidious conspiracy” to obtain his tax records. They published a study in 2018 that won the prestigious Pulitzer Prize.

In a new ruling on Friday, this judge found the amount of legal fees estimated by The New York Times to be “reasonable” and ordered Donald Trump to reimburse them in full at that amount.
