Donald Trump will not get a new trial in his case against E. Jean Carroll, after federal Judge Lewis Kaplan on Thursday denied the former president's request.
Trump was ordered to pay Carroll, an advice columnist, $83.3 million, after a New York jury ruled in January that he had defamed her in 2019 by denying her allegations of sexual assault.
The ruling and heavy sum was on top of $5 million Trump already owed Carroll from an earlier case last year, in which a civil jury found he had sexually assaulted and defamed her again in 2022.
Judge Kaplan rejected Trump's latest attempt to avoid paying over $80 million, finding in his ruling Thursday the former president's motion for a new trial or judgment "without merit" and the amount in damages appropriate.o
