Donald Trump requests the U.S. Supreme Court to review the civil case of 5 million dollars in which he was found guilty of sexual abuse and defamation against journalist E. Jean Carroll

A federal appeals court upheld the verdict and sentence, ruling that there were no errors that would justify a new trial. Trump contests the decision, arguing that Judge Lewis Kaplan made errors, including allowing the testimony of other victims and viewing a compromising recording. Carroll accused Trump of sexual assault in the '90s and defamation in 2019, when he denied the allegations. The appeal has not yet been officially filed, and the Department of Justice has submitted a brief in support of re-examining presidential immunity in civil cases.
