The federal judge once referred to by the President of the United States as “a total disgrace” who handed down “unfair rulings” supposedly because of his ethnicity, has once again ruled in Donald Trump’s favor, granting final approval to a $25 million settlement in fraud cases stemming from his real estate seminar side hustle, Trump University.
On Friday, U.S. District Court Judge Gonzalo Curiel approved the final settlement, ruling that a last-minute objection from a class member who wished to opt out and pursue her own case against Trump University would not be allowed to proceed.
In a Thursday hearing, Judge Curiel called the settlement “extraordinary.”
After years of refusing to settle two class action lawsuits and a New York civil case against him—“I could have settled but won’t out of principle!” he once tweeted—in November of last year, just days after winning the election, Trump surprisingly agreed to the hefty settlement, which meant some 3,700 students who felt they’d been swindled by Trump University would be paid back around 90 cents on the dollar of what they had invested.
