Donald Trump is now a few million dollars richer after winning a lawsuit against a construction company accused of overcharging him for work at a golf course.
"If you get caught with your hand in Mr Trump's cookie jar you're going to get slapped and slapped hard," said Trump's attorney.
Trump sued the construction company claiming it had billed him for US$1.5 million ($2.22 million) more than he owed for excavation work during the construction of Trump National Golf Club and homes in Briarcliff Manor.
He was awarded US$2.1 million ($3.08 million) in damages plus 9 per cent interest over four years and still-to-be-determined legal fees.
