Summary
A judge is expected to release his final ruling later in Donald Trump's civil fraud trial in New York
Trump and his two adult sons have already been found liable of massively inflating the value of their properties by hundreds of millions of dollars in a trial that ended last month
But this ruling sets out what penalties they must pay - and they could be ordered to pay millions of dollars, although Trump will likely appeal
New York's attorney general had asked the judge to fine Trump $370m (£294m) for what she calls the "outrageous" schemes
Trump could also be barred from doing business in New York where he built his property empire, or be told to hand over control of Trump Tower
He and his two adult sons deny any wrongdoing, with the former president calling the case a "fraud on me" and a "political witch hunt"
