Appeals court upholds $5 million fine of Donald Trump in E. Jean Carroll case
ยท Dec 30, 2024 ยท NottheBee.com

Donald Trump was THIS close to having a perfect 2024, but a federal appeals court just stood in the way of his flawless year.

Trump was seeking to appeal the decision from 2023, which held the president-elect liable for $5 million in damages to E. Jean Carrol for alleged sexual abuse and defamation. The courts rejected the appeal.

President-elect Donald Trump is not entitled to a new trial in the case in which a jury found him liable for sexual abuse and defamation of the writer E. Jean Carroll, a federal appeals court ruled Monday.

The court roundly rejected claims by Trump and his lawyers that the judge who presided over the trial made a series of decisions that harmed Trump's standing with the jury ...

Monday's 77-page decision rejected complaints made repeatedly by Trump before, during and after the nine-day trial.

Here's a reminder of the way this case was handled.

They admitted Trump's Access Hollywood tape as "evidence" but, for some reason, wouldn't let Trump play this clip as evidence.

Now that ruling is upheld and Trump is on the hook for millions.
