Judge Upholds $83 Million E. Jean Carroll Defamation Verdict Against Trump
Quick Glance: Court Rejects Trump's Bid for New Trial Against E. Jean Carroll
  • A federal judge rejected former President Donald Trumpā€™s request for a new trialā€”or to throw out the $83.3 million defamation rulingā€”against writer E. Jean Carroll, marking the latest legal loss for the former president.

  • In the Thursday ruling rejecting the request for a new trial or the judgment to be dismissed, U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan said Trumpā€™s argument was ā€œwithout merit,ā€ made ā€œconspicuously without successā€ and ā€œdefies common sense.ā€

  • Robbie Kaplan, Carrollā€™s lawyer, told Forbes in a statement they are ā€œpleased with though not surprised byā€ the courtā€™s decision, adding the award was ā€œentirely reasonableā€ because of Trumpā€™s continued defamation, ā€œhatred and disdain.ā€

  • In January, a jury determined Trump had to pay Carroll $83.3 million in damages after she accused him of sexual assault. Previously, another jury found Trump liable for sexual assault in the 1990s and subsequent defamation, ordering him to pay $5 million.

Quick Glance: Trial Judge Evaluates Trump's Compliance with Gag Order
  • Former President Trump is on trial in New York for hush money issues. David Pecker from 'National Enquirer' testified about an agreement to manipulate stories about Trump and his rivals.

  • Concerns arose about Trump's violation of the gag order by criticizing court members. Mary McCord explained how the administration of justice can be disrupted by defendants' statements, leading to legal restrictions.

  • Despite reluctance to detain a former president, fines may be imposed for attacks on witnesses and judicial families. Threats to security and witness testimonies pose serious challenges to the trial's integrity.

  • Judges emphasize the importance of upholding justice by addressing threats and ensuring the safety of those involved in legal proceedings. The credibility of the trial hinges on maintaining a fair and secure environment.
