A federal judge in New York has rejected former President Trump's appeal to pay E. Jean Carroll $83.3 million after a jury found him liable for damages in a defamation case. The case stems from Carroll's allegations that Trump raped her in the 1990s, which he has denied.
In January, a federal jury ruled that Trump must pay $18.3 million in compensatory damages and $65 million in punitive damages to Carroll. Following this decision, Trump and his legal team filed a motion requesting a new trial, citing concerns about the limitations placed on his testimony during the initial trial.
