A Florida golf course owned by President Donald Trump plans to appeal a judge’s order to refund $4.85 million in deposits to former club members.
Trump National Golf Club Jupiter filed notice Tuesday that it wants a higher court to review a federal judge’s ruling a month ago that the club breached the former members’ contract by denying them access and failing to refund their deposits within 30 days. The judge also directed the club to pay $925,010 in interest.
