After accusing the former president of engaging in sex acts with prostitutes and paying bribes to Russian authorities, a court in London ordered Trump to pay a six-figure legal fee for the corporation.

Christopher Steele, the founder of Orbis Business Intelligence, a consulting business, filed a lawsuit against the former M16 officer last month, but Justice Steyn rejected it. The dossier that included the startling allegations about Trump's purported pre-presidential conduct is what made Steele famous.

As per the Associated Press on Thursday, the court said that the action was "bound to fail" and directed Trump to reimburse the corporation for the 300,000 pounds ($382,000) worth of legal expenses.

With four criminal charges and a $355 million civil judgment against his corporation for fraud, the Republican front-runner is facing an increasing number of legal problems in the United States. In addition, a New York jury had already convicted him guilty of sexually assaulting novelist E. Jean Carroll in the 1990s, and he was now forced to pay her over $80 million for defamation.

The court mandated in the latest decision that Trump reimburse Orbis for all legal fees incurred in the case. The dossier claiming that Trump had been corrupted by the Russian security services was written by Steele.
