Writer E. Jean Carroll’s lawyer says former President Trump’s comments bashing Carroll during his recent CNN town hall are “definitely actionable” after a jury found Trump liable for sexual abuse against her.
“So it’s definitely actionable. And here the cruelty will make him less wealthy. He is not going to get away with it another time,” attorney Roberta Kaplan said on MSNBC’s “The Interview,” appearing alongside Carroll.
“It’s unprecedented for a person to have been held liable in defamation to keep doing the defamation, so there are not a lot of cases that we can look to for a playbook about how to do it,” she said. “But, suffice to say, I have a lot of lawyers who are very busy looking into this, and we are weighing all of our options.”

By skank, do you mean the woman, or the lawyers, or both?
If they couldn’t prove rape...which meant being in a certain place at a certain time...how the hell did they prove sexual abuse??
All of the above
yeah because god forbid Trump say that this broad is a liar but its A OK for her to slander him and call him a rapist that’s fine
In a U.K. court perhaps, but not in the U.S. where the bar on slander is much higher.
What did Trump say that was not true?
Exactly! Trump should counter-sue her for slandering him!
Would probably be kind of difficult since she is now a public figure.
Why does she need a lot of lawyers to look into ‘actionable slurs’?
One lawyer with credibility and knowledge of the law, should be enough. Methinks the lawyer is just playing scare tactics against Trump. Trump doesn’t scare easy, so, she thinks a lot of lawyers will do the trick.
I don’t understand why he’s liable for defamation just for declaring his innocence, when the jury didn’t find him liable for rape in the first place.
How can Carroll be so proud of our legal system...when they made a special “temporary” NYS law for her which set aside any statute of limitations.
That was my first thought also.
He’s very gonna pay her squat.
*By skank, do you mean the woman, or the lawyers, or both?*
Loser pays. problem solved.
You’re just never supposed to speak ill of a Democrat. That’s criminal behavior.
If they couldn’t prove rape...which meant being in a certain place at a certain time...how the hell did they prove sexual abuse??
In New York, they’d indict Trump for eating a ham sammich..
Trump can sue them in Florida. I suggest 100 million.
E. Jean Carrol = Maureen Dowd = slut
