Dissolution order in New York hits Trump business operations hard ......
Engoron ordered a receiver to be appointed that would oversee the companies and sell off assets in the case, though legal experts told Insider Trump would continue to own his buildings.
Former financial crimes prosecutor Diana Florence told Insider the situation is akin to a company going bankrupt, and likened losing a business license to losing a driver's licenseāmeaning the person could still own the car, but they wouldnāt be able to do anything with it without the license to drive it.
The receiver will sell off assets and continue to take steps like paying the companyās bills until those assets are sold off, Florence said, and Trump would then receive any money thatās left over after paying the companyās debts as the Trump Organizationās beneficiary.
