Former President Donald Trump is set to hold a press conference in New York on Friday around noon ET. The topic of the press conference has not been announced by the campaign.
Earlier in the day, the former president is expected to attend a court hearing in New York City. His legal team will be seeking to overturn a civil court ruling that ordered him to pay $5 million to E. Jean Carroll.
This development comes amidst ongoing legal battles faced by the former president, with this particular case involving a defamation lawsuit filed by E. Jean Carroll, a writer and columnist. The lawsuit stems from allegations made by Carroll, who accused Trump of sexually assaulting her in the mid-1990s.
Trump's legal team has been vigorously contesting the ruling, arguing that the former president should not be held personally liable for statements made while he was in office. The outcome of the court hearing could have significant implications for Trump's financial obligations in this case.
Given the high-profile nature of the case and the potential impact on Trump's legal battles, the press conference following the court hearing is expected to draw significant attention from the media and the public.
Observers will be closely watching both the court proceedings and the subsequent press conference for any updates or statements from the former president regarding the ongoing legal challenges he faces.
