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 Trump’s request for a new trial—or to throw out the $83.3 million defamation ruling—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 Trump’s argument was “without merit,” made “conspicuously without success” and “defies common sense.”

  • Robbie Kaplan, Carroll’s lawyer, told Forbes in a statement they are “pleased with though not surprised by” the court’s decision, adding the award was “entirely reasonable” because of Trump’s continued defamation, “hatred and disdain.”

  • 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.
