Supreme Court justices skeptical of sweeping immunity claims by Trump
Quick Glance: Supreme Court Hears Trump Immunity Claim in Election Interference Case
  • The Supreme Court is considering Donald Trump’s assertion of total immunity from criminal charges over his attempt to overturn the 2020 election results.

  • Justices express concerns about whether certain presidential acts should be off-limits, casting doubt on the possibility of a trial taking place before the election.

  • The case scrutinizes the distinction between private and official acts of Trump, with the Court likely rejecting Trump's broadest arguments, potentially immunizing even acts such as ordering a military coup.

  • The focus remains on the legal question of whether a former president can be prosecuted for actions taken while in office, emphasizing the importance of the Court's ruling on the extent of official act protection and the implications for future presidents.

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.
