Trump asks Supreme Court to throw out E. Jean Carroll’s $5 million verdict

Trump seeks Supreme Court review after a 2023 jury found him liable for sexual abuse and defamation, with $5 million awarded to columnist E. Jean Carroll.

  • On Monday, President Donald Trump asked the Supreme Court to overturn the sexual abuse and defamation verdict won by E. Jean Carroll following a 2023 jury finding and ongoing appeals.
  • E. Jean Carroll alleges the assault occurred in a New York City department store in the late 1990s, though she does not recall an exact date, while President Donald Trump denies the claims and says she fabricated them to harm him or boost her career.
  • Arguing lack of corroboration, Trump's filing told the high court there were no eyewitnesses, video, or police reports, while a federal appeals court panel affirmed the damages award and rejected Trump’s legal challenges last year.
  • Whether the Supreme Court takes up the case is yet to be seen, CNN noted, and the litigation remains separate from the half-billion-dollar civil fraud judgment New York Attorney General Letitia James won against Trump.
