Jean Carroll at a New York City department store in the mid-1990s and later defamed her.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/corporate-movers-usa.com\/?p=1760\">Uber driver pleads no contest in the rape of a Villanova student inside her dorm room<\/a><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>The high court declined to take up the case in a brief, unexplained order, as is typical. There were no noted dissents. Trump also plans to appeal another $83.3 million verdict awarded to Carroll by a different jury after a second defamation trial, his lawyers have said.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>The decision comes as the court hands down its biggest opinions, including a ruling that expands Trump\u2019s firing power over the federal bureaucracy with the exception of the Federal Reserve.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Trump called the decision to pass on the Carroll case \u201csurprising\u201d in a social media post, and he said he would continue to fight the defamation claims. \u201cThis Case is really against the United States of America, and all it stands for,\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Trump\u2019s lawyers had argued that allegations leading to the verdict were propped up by \u201chighly inflammatory\u201d evidentiary rulings, including those that allowed the testimony of two other women who accused Trump of sexual abuse decades ago. Trump has denied all three women\u2019s allegations.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Trump\u2019s attorneys argued the judge broke federal evidence rules in the case. They framed it as a distraction from Trump\u2019s unique duties as president, though the verdict came before his return to the White House.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>\u201cThis mistreatment of a President cannot be allowed to stand,\u201d Attorney Justin D. Smith wrote in court documents. Trump, a Republican, has since nominated Smith to be an appeals court judge. His lawyers called the case \u201cLiberal Lawfare\u201d in a statement on Monday.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/corporate-movers-usa.com\/?p=1758\">Explosion levels home in Sellersville, Bucks County, drawing a multi-agency response<\/a><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Carroll\u2019s lawyers had urged the justices to pass on the case. They argued that the women\u2019s testimony was relevant because the allegations were similar and that Judge Lewis Kaplan\u2019s decisions were in line with others around the country. \u201cThis question is not worthy of review,\u201d wrote attorney Roberta Kaplan, who is not related to the judge.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Monday\u2019s decision affirms the jury\u2019s verdict will stand, she said in a statement Monday. \u201cHis multiple efforts to appeal that verdict have all failed and today\u2019s ruling ends his quest to avoid accountability for his actions,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Carroll, a longtime advice columnist and former TV talk show host, testified at a 2023 trial that Trump turned a friendly encounter in spring 1996 into a violent attack in the dressing room at Bergdorf Goodman, a luxury retailer across the street from Trump Tower in Manhattan. The jury also found Trump liable for defaming Carroll when he denied her allegation in 2022.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>The Associated Press does not identify people who say they have been sexually assaulted unless they come forward publicly, as Carroll has done.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Trump has successfully fended off other hefty court judgments, including a New York civil fraud penalty of over $500 million thrown out by a New York appeals court. The Supreme Court also granted him broad immunity  from criminal prosecution in 2024, though it later narrowly rejected his bid to halt sentencing in his New York hush money case.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/corporate-movers-usa.com\/?p=1757\">Man stabbed on SEPTA bus in West Philadelphia, authorites say<\/a><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>His lawyers called the case &quot;mistreatment of a President,&quot; although the verdict came before he returned to the White House.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1761,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[18,2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1762","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nation-world","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Supreme Court rejects Trump\u2019s push to toss $5 million verdict in E.
