A New York judge has found former US president Donald Trump in contempt of court and set in motion US$10,000 ($14,000) daily fines for failing to adequately respond to a subpoena issued by the state's attorney general as part of a civil investigation into his business dealings.Judge Arthur Engoron said a contempt finding was appropriate because Mr Trump and his lawyers hadn't shown they had conducted a proper search for records sought by the subpoena."Mr Trump, I know you take your business seriously, and I take mine seriously," Judge Engoron said in a Manhattan courtroom that was packed with reporters, but absent of Mr Trump.
