"Judge Allows Trump to Testify in E. Jean Carroll Defamation Trial"
TL;DR Summary
A New York judge has cleared the way for Donald Trump to testify at his own defamation trial, rejecting his request to postpone the trial for a week to attend a funeral. Concerns were raised about Trump potentially "sowing chaos" at the trial, but the judge declined to adopt strict measures proposed by Carroll's lawyers. The trial, which begins Tuesday, will determine how much Trump owes Carroll in damages for defaming her in 2019.
