President-elect Donald J. Trump retained a $5 million judgment affirming E. Jean Carroll's claims of sexual abuse and defamation, despite his legal team's appeals against it.
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit found Mr. Trump did not establish any errors in the lower court's rulings, including allowing testimony from other alleged victims.
Roberta Kaplan, Ms. Carroll's attorney, expressed gratitude for the court's careful deliberation, reinforcing that the judgment appears to uphold the integrity of the legal process.
Trump's spokesperson, Steven Cheung, criticized the legal proceedings as a politically motivated attack, referring to the case as part of a 'witch hunt' and indicating future appeals.
