A judge on Tuesday said E. Jean Carroll, the New York writer who won a $5 million jury verdict against Donald Trump last month, can pursue a separate $10 million defamation lawsuit against the former U.S. president.
U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan in Manhattan ruled in favor of the former Elle magazine columnist, after Trump had argued that the defamation case must be dismissed because jurors had concluded he never raped her.
A spokeswoman for Trump did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Trump’s lawyer Alina Habba was in Miami, where Trump pleaded not guilty in a separate case to federal criminal charges that he mishandled classified files.
On May 9, a Manhattan jury ordered Trump to pay Carroll $2 million for battery and $3 million for defamation, after Carroll accused him of raping her in a department store dressing room in the mid-1990s, and Trump in October 2022 denied that accusation.

When is this clown show with this crazy woman going to end?
Trump is being persecuted. Perfect time for this hag to bleed more money out of him on false pretenses.

This stooge-judge is OBVIOUSLY ruling from his personal politics.
There is going to come a time in this country when a blatant politic ruling like this will provoke an extreme reaction from the target.
She’ll never get a cent, not one cent.
And the judge must be impeached for abuse of power, civil right violations, etc.
If anything - can’t Trump sue her for defaming HIM?!
I think Trump woke up a lot of people as to what the inner circle has been up to and that’s exactly why they hate him. And the more they jerk him around the more I support him just to spite his enemies lol. If all of a sudden the MSM started liking Trump and saying nice things about him, then I really would be concerned that he had been compromised somehow.
Reuters is now giving free legal advice.
No witnesses. Doesn’t remember when it happened. Happened in a department story dressing room. As if Trump ever hung out in department stores. He had people for that.
This corrupt partisan judge must be removed from the bench. He is not a judge, he is an activist
“There is going to come a time in this country when a blatant politic ruling like this will provoke an extreme reaction from the target. “
In all likelihood yep! The left like to utterly crush and destroy their enemies, in this case by perverting the judicial process. In time there won’t be any reason. NOT to go after the judges as one would simply have nothing left to lose.
Of course she can. (sarc)
Do you think undercover feds who instigate things like this ever accidentally no-knock raid one another?
While Trump’s bad boy antics are very unimportant compared to Biden’s horrible policies and real crimes, they definitely do not help him win votes.
The Republican Party would do best to nominate someone else for President in 2024. We really need to win in 2024, or we will all end up driving electric go Karts and getting semiannual Pfizer injections.
Is there anything Communist Urinalists don’t know ?
You’re cute.
I wonder, don’t these Marxist judges ever retire? This bastard has to be close to 80.
Well bless your heart
