The judge in the civil fraud case against former President Donald Trump has received hundreds of threatening messages, court filings show.

A new court filing shows that the office of the judge presiding over the civil fraud trial of former President Donald Trump in New York has received “hundreds of threatening, harassing, disparaging and antisemitic” threats.

The threats were made to the office of Judge Arthur Engoron, according to an affidavit that was attached to a Nov. 22 court filing, which states that there’s been a “deluge” of threatening messages to the court’s chambers phone and the personal cell phone as well as email and social media accounts of Judge Engoron’s chief law clerk, Allison Greenfield.

The filing, registered with the New York appeals court, argues that a gag order against President Trump that was handed down weeks ago by Judge Engoron should be upheld.

This came after President Trump publicly criticized Ms. Greenfield.

“Ms. Greenfieldโ€™s personal information, including her personal cell phone number and personal email addresses also have been compromised resulting in daily doxing,” Charles Hollon, the court officer with the New York Department of Public Safety, wrote in the affidavit.

“She has been subjected to, on a daily basis, harassing, disparaging comments, and antisemitic tropes.”

Mr. Hollon also wrote in the affidavit that, prior to the commencement of the trial, the judicial threats unit became aware of “harassing and disparaging comments and threats made about and toward Judge Engoron on social media.”

After determining that the threats were deemed to be “credible,” the unit contacted the FBI and Homeland Security to implement extra security measures to protect the judge, his family, and his chamber staff.

Further, Mr. Hollon claimed in the affidavit that, after President Trump posted a picture on social media of Ms. Greenfield with Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) on Oct. 3, the threats, harassment, and disparaging comments “increased exponentially” and began to target Ms. Greenfield.

President Trump labeled Ms. Greenfield as a Democratic Party loyalist with close ties to Mr. Schumer.

“Schumer’s girlfriend, Allison R. Greenfield, is running this case against me. How Disgraceful! This case should be dismissed immediately,” President Trump wrote in the post.

Mr. Hollon said that, even though President Trump didn’t directly threaten Ms. Greenfield, “the comments made in his post resulted in hundreds of threatening and harassing voicemail messages” that he said have been “transcribed into over 275 single spaced pages.”
