Donald Trump may be a first-time offender following his criminal conviction on Thursday, but his contact with the civil justice system will likely be considered at sentencing as well, according to legal observers.

At the forefront could be a February decision from another New York judge finding the former president liable for a civil fraud scheme to deceive banks and insurers and ordering Trump to pay some $355 million in penalties. That decision is under appeal.
