The former president sued them unsuccessfully over a Pulitzer Prize-winning 2018 story about his family's wealth and tax practices
The expenses are for a failed lawsuit the former president filed against the paper and its reporters.
Former President Donald Trump was ordered Friday to pay nearly $400,000 in legal fees to The New York Times and three investigative reporters after he sued them unsuccessfully over a Pulitzer Prize-winning 2018 story about his family's wealth and tax practices.
Donald Trump claimed in the dismissed lawsuit that The New York Times plotted with his niece Mary Trump to obtain his private tax records.
The newspaper and reporters Susanne Craig, David Barstow and Russell Buettner were dismissed from the lawsuit in May.
