Former President Donald Trump is appealing a New York jury’s verdict awarding $5 million to E. Jean Carroll after a jury concluded he sexually abused her in the 1990s and defamed her last October.
It also said in its verdict that Trump defamed Carroll in a social media statement last October.
In the notice of appeal filed in the lower court Thursday where Judge Lewis A. Kaplan presided over the trial, Trump's lawyers wrote that “notice is hereby given that Defendant Donald J. Trump appeals” to the 2nd Circuit. He was referencing Kaplan's rejection of an attempt to substitute the United States for Trump as the defendant in an earlier defamation lawsuit filed by Carroll for statements Trump made while he was president. The 2nd Circuit later ruled that Trump was an employee of the government for purposes of the lawsuit, but the appeal has not been fully resolved.
