On Tuesday, January 16, Trump will face E. Jean Carroll for his second defamation trial. But this time, the only issue for the jury is how big a check the former president will have to cut to the advice columnist.
Because the defamatory statements at issue in two separate trials are substantially the same, Judge Lewis Kaplan granted partial summary judgment in September on the issue of defamation. Trump is now precluded from claiming that he never assaulted Carroll and from arguing that the statements are not defamatory.
