Kushner family has over half a million dollars in unpaid NYC fines

NBC New York  The Kushner family real estate firm has amassed over half a million dollars in unpaid fines for various New York City sanitation and building violations, much of that bill incurred while President Donald Trump's son-in-law and adviser Jared Kushner was running the company.

City figures compiled for The Associated Press by a tenant watchdog group show that most of the fines — $350,000 — stretched over the past five years. And just last month the company was fined $210,000 for filing false construction documents.

The hundreds of violations in dozens of its buildings ranged from the seemingly minor — "loose rubbish" — to the serious, such as not getting permits for electrical work or failing to notify authorities of work that could disturb asbestos.
