President Donald Trump’s development company on Wednesday was ordered to pay former members of its Jupiter, Fla., golf club $5.77 million.
According to a report in the Palm Beach Post, some members had filed suit against Trump National Golf Club Jupiter. After Trump bought the club from The Ritz Carlton for $5 million in 2012, these members had declared their intention to resign. Trump, they claimed, refused to refund their deposits or allow them to continue using the club facilities, while continuing to charge them membership fees.
U.S. District Judge Kenneth Marra ruled in favor of the members, awarding them $4.
