Supreme Court rejects Trump’s push to toss $5 million verdict in E. Jean Carroll sexual abuse case
The justices declined to review Trump’s challenge, leaving the jury’s finding of sexual abuse and defamation and the $5 million civil judgment in place.
- On Monday, June 29, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court declined to review President Donald Trump's appeal of a 2023 jury verdict, leaving intact a $5 million judgment finding him liable for sexual abuse and defamation of E. Jean Carroll.
- The 2023 federal jury found Trump liable for sexual abuse and defamation stemming from Carroll's allegation that he assaulted her in spring 1996 at Bergdorf Goodman, a Manhattan luxury department store.
- Trump's legal team argued the trial judge "erroneously allowed testimony about multiple decades-old, unverified and unrelated allegations to be presented to the jury," but the Supreme Court declined to intervene without explanation.
- Carroll's attorney Roberta Kaplan stated the ruling "affirms once and for all" the jury's verdict, enabling Carroll to enforce the $5 million judgment against Trump.
- Trump remains entangled in a separate 2024 defamation verdict awarding Carroll $83.3 million, with his legal team continuing to pursue challenges through lower court appeals.
