Lawyers for E. Jean Carroll have asked a federal appeals court to expedite Donald Trump’s appeal of the verdict in their first trial in which a jury awarded Carroll $5 million in damages after finding Trump liable for defamation and battery in May 2023.
Carroll wants to see the oral arguments for the appeal scheduled to take place by July, arguing that the former president will try to further delay the proceedings, using his ongoing criminal trial or busy campaign schedule as an excuse.
The motion with the 2nd US Circuit Court of Appeals filed Tuesday cites Trump’s numerous attempts to delay both trials with Carroll as a signal that he’s likely to drag out the appeal.
“Donald J. Trump has demonstrated a clear pattern of dilatory, obstructionist, and bad faith conduct throughout these proceedings. With the pendency of the general presidential election campaign (which will intensify in the fall), not to mention several active state and federal criminal proceedings, Mr. Trump may well contend that any oral argument scheduled for later in 2024 must be deferred until early 2025 – at which point he could be preparing for an inauguration or awaiting another criminal trial,” the motion says. Carroll’s lawyers argue an expedited appellate ruling on the first case would help promote a timely resolution in Trump’s separate appeal of the verdict in the second trial between Carroll and Trump that hinged on the jury’s decision in the first trial per a ruling from the judge who presided over both trials.

Looks to me the court will take the lead of SCOTUS and go slow.
A vindictive hag who wants to pile on the misery to her enemy.
She’s already getting millions and already slandered Trump with her lies based on her twisted fantasy in her brain.
The lying sack of dogsqueezins E.Jean Squirrell weighs in.
And interfere with the election, no doubt in coordination with the puppeteers at The White Hospice and in Gauleiter Garland's Department of Jesters.
The Squirrell and her lawyer already colluded with the New Jerk state demoncrat legislature and the governor of New Jerk state, wHoleslut.
Well said.
I’m sure her hidden supporters are encouraging her all the way.
But this isn’t election interference, right? 🤣
Not vindictive -—that would mean he really was guilty of assaulting her. Just pure O D greedy and nuttier than squirrel poop.
If the courts do not expedite that appeal, frustrated
E. Jean-Jeanie will be seen pulling out what remains of her over dyed featbery hair!
Maybe they’ll pass a law that will allow a one year window for people that haven’t taken out student loans in the past 30 years to get a student loan then have it forgiven if it’s more than 10 years from when the student loan would have been taken out. Sounds stupid, which means the NY legislature will pass it soon.
She wants the appeal to take place before the election because she knows the lawfare ends once Trump gets elected. The left’s appetite for it will be gone, and it won’t be as easy to find a judge willing to openly flout the law.
needs to be made destitute, shopping cart and a card board box to live in under an overpass
Except if your name is Donald Trump.

She is in her 80’s.
Forget the election hurry. Her interesting lifetime may end before this case sees resolution. And does she have heirs who can pursue Trump then?
Hucksters continue to come out of the woodwork looking for money.
And a dozen cats...
I think she could be vindictive for being scorned when her fantasy of him wanting her was dashed against the rocks.
Fully agree about her nutty status, however.
