Donald Trump has posted bond that will allow him to appeal an $83.3-million jury award granted to writer E. Jean Carroll during a January defamation trial stemming from rape claims she made against the former president.
Alina Habba, Trump's attorney, filed papers with the New York judge on Friday to show that Trump had secured a $91.6-million bond from the Federal Insurance Co. She simultaneously filed a notice of appeal to show Trump is appealing the verdict to the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.If Trump wins that appeal, the money will be returned to him. If the appeal process fails, the money will be used in the payout.
Carroll, who alleged that Trump raped her at the Bergdorf Goodman department store across from Trump Tower in Manhattan sometime in 1996, was seeking $12 million.Trump, the 2024 GOP front-runner, has repeatedly and vehemently denied the allegation. His denial resulted in Carroll slapping Trump with a defamation lawsuit, claiming his response caused harm to her reputation.
