The Supreme Court on Monday that it will not hear an appeal by President Donald Trump seeking review of the $5 million jury verdict entered against him in the sexual abuse and defamation case filed by journalist E. Jean Carroll. The was conferenced by the justices for the first time on June 25 after being first scheduled for a conference in February and then rescheduled more than a dozen times.<\/p>\n

Carroll filed the lawsuit that led to Trump\u2019s petition in 2022 in a federal court in New York. She asserted that Trump had sexually assaulted her in a dressing room at a Manhattan department store in 1996 and then defamed her in 2022 after she went public with her assault allegations. A jury ultimately awarded Carroll $5 million, and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 2nd Circuit upheld that verdict.<\/p>\n

In November, Trump came to the Supreme Court, asking the justices to hear his appeal. He contended that Carroll\u2019s lawyers should not have been allowed to introduce testimony by other women who also alleged that Trump had assaulted them, as well as the 2005 \u201cAccess Hollywood\u201d tape in which Trump bragged about grabbing women by their genitals.<\/p>\n

In her , Carroll argued that even if the jury should not have been allowed to consider the evidence, it ultimately would not have made a difference because the rest of her case was so strong. She asked the justices to deny review.<\/p>\n

On Monday, the justices did so, without a noted dissent from the denial. The court is expected to soon received another petition for review from Trump in a separate defamation case involving Carroll, in which the same federal appeals court upheld an $83 million verdict in Carroll\u2019s favor.<\/p>\n
