Trump Told To Pay £600,000 To UK Firm He Sued

Donald Trump has been instructed to pay more than £600,000 in legal costs to Orbis Business Intelligence, a consultancy founded by former MI6 officer Christopher Steele, whom he sued over claims of "perverted" sex acts and bribes to Russian officials, Jeremy Culley reported for BBC News.

Last month, Mrs. Justice Steyn dismissed the case against Orbis Business Intelligence and found that Trump's compensation claim was "bound to fail." In a new ruling, she also ordered Mr. Trump to cover Orbis's entire claim costs.


The order, obtained by the Associated Press (AP), also noted that Trump has made no attempt to appeal. She stated that £300,000 should be paid by Trump before the total costs are decided by a specialist judge.

Steele, who previously headed the Secret Intelligence Service's Russia desk, authored the so-called Steele dossier.


This dossier contained uncorroborated intelligence claims, denied by Mr. Trump, alleging that the former US president had been "compromised" by the Russian security service, the FSB.

Last year, the High Court was informed that Trump was bringing a data protection claim over two memos in the dossier, which claimed he had participated in "sex parties" in St Petersburg and engaged in "golden showers" with prostitutes in Moscow.
