Alternatively, putting them up for collateral would require their real valuation to be assessed, which someone guilty of lying about their worth for sure wouldn't want to be known.
I could imagine banks being suspicious after that trial as well.
Hell, the NYAG would be interested, because just that fact would probably tank his appeal instantly.
"Your Honor, the value of the property Defendant put up as collateral for this appeal is less than the value of the property Defendant has claimed on his taxes and more than the value of the property the Defendant has claimed in various loan applications, and I need not remind the court they're all the same property, therefore we move to dismiss this appeal because duh."
That's the real reason he's scared now, it'll be known how little he actually has in equity once the AG has to start selling them off.
I hope not, but I think there's a strong possibility that Trump has a devil's bargain available to get him the money but it's almost worse than everyone knowing he's pretty broke. Mean maybe not since that's his whole charade, he pretty much kowtowed to Putin in front of cameras at Helsinki (think that's the spot where he denied US intelligence agencie's opinion) so here's to hoping he's actually going to have at least some comeuppance to his life of fraud.
Meh, he would just sell it to the magas that all the other billionaires are lowballing the values to take advantage of him. And the new "low" valuations are just out to bankrupt him.
