What exact documents are listed in the Westchester County Clerk’s judgment-and-liens index for Donald J. Trump, the Trump Organization, and related parties after March 6, 2024?
Executive summary
New York Attorney General Letitia James registered civil-fraud judgments in the Westchester County Clerk’s judgments-and-liens index on March 6, 2024, listing entries against Donald J. Trump, the Trump Organization and two adult Trump children, which the county clerk’s online records reflect [1] [2]. Public reporting and the clerk’s own website show those registrations are recorded as judgments that create lien rights in Westchester — but the accessible news accounts do not reproduce the clerk’s exact document titles or images that would appear in the county’s judgment-and-liens index [3] [4] [5].
1. What the public reports say was filed: “Judgments” registered March 6
Multiple news outlets report that the Attorney General’s office “registered” the court judgments in the Westchester clerk’s office on March 6, 2024, and that those entries were made against Donald J. Trump, the Trump Organization and two of his adult children [1] [2] [6]. Those accounts describe the filings as the formal registration of the civil-fraud judgments entered after Judge Arthur Engoron’s ruling and characterize the registration as the first step that enables lien and seizure procedures in Westchester [7] [8].
2. How the county clerk and reporters describe the registered items: judgments creating liens, not asset-specific documents
Westchester County Clerk Tim Idoni told reporters that filing the judgment in Westchester effectively places a lien on Trump’s properties in the county, a procedural move that lets the creditor more readily attach local assets if enforcement is pursued [9] [10]. News coverage makes clear the March 6 entries were registrations of the court judgment rather than filings that, at least in the media accounts, listed or singled out specific deeds, mortgages or property descriptions in the public narrative [3] [4].
3. What the filings did not show, according to reporting: no asset lists or document images released
Multiple outlets noted the registration “didn’t give a reason for the registration or identify any Trump assets,” and that the filings, as reported, did not reproduce the clerk’s index images or enumerate precise document titles such as “Notice of Lien” or “Transcribed Judgment” in public coverage [3] [2] [4]. Reporters repeated that registering the judgment allows the state to pursue liens on local properties like Trump National Golf Club Westchester and the Seven Springs estate but emphasized that registration itself does not automatically effect a seizure [3] [10].
4. What the Westchester clerk’s office says about records and how to get exact documents
The Westchester County Clerk’s office explains that its judgments-and-liens index is a permanent public record and that weekly reports and transcribed judgments are available for purchase or inspection; the office also describes procedures to request unsealed legal records or certified copies and to search online via Westchester Records Online [5] [11] [12]. Those administrative pages indicate that to see the “exact documents” (for example, the filed judgment entry, any notices of pendency, renewals, satisfactions or related liens) one must access the clerk’s index or order copies through the clerk’s procedures [5] [11].
5. Bottom line and next steps to obtain the exact document titles and images
Public reporting confirms the March 6 registration of judgments against Trump, the Trump Organization and two adult children and explains the legal effect of placing a judgment on the Westchester index [1] [2]. However, the reviewed news pieces and the clerk’s public pages do not print or list the clerk’s exact document filenames or scanned entries that appear in the Westchester judgments-and-liens index; obtaining those precise document records requires searching Westchester Records Online or requesting certified copies from the County Clerk per the office’s instructions [5] [11] [12]. The clerk’s office, not the secondary reporting, is therefore the authoritative source for the exact document names and images that were entered after March 6 [5].
