Trump Seeks Supreme Court Review of $83 Million Defamation Verdict in Carroll Case
Former President Donald Trump has asked the US Supreme Court to overturn an $83.3 million defamation verdict awarded to writer E. Jean Carroll. Trump's legal team argues that his 2019 statements denying Carroll's sexual assault allegations were protected by presidential immunity and made in his official capacity. They also requested the federal government be substituted as defendant under the Westfall Act. Lower courts upheld the verdict, and Carroll has collected over $5.6 million so far, with the case now pending Supreme Court review.
