"Trump's Defamation Trial: E. Jean Carroll's Case Resumes with Speculation Over Testimony"

Donald Trump and E Jean Carroll arrive at Manhattan Federal Court for the restart of the defamation trial, with Trump posting inflammatory messages about Carroll on social media just hours before the trial. The trial, which was delayed due to a Covid-19 scare, is Carroll's second defamation case against Trump, with the jury previously finding him liable for sexual abuse and defamation and awarding Carroll $5m in damages.

"Trump's Defamation Trial with E. Jean Carroll: Live Updates and Evidence Ruling"

Former President Donald Trump and E. Jean Carroll are in the same room for the first time in decades as jury selection begins for the second defamation trial. Carroll is seeking more than $10 million in damages for Trump's 2019 defamatory statements about her sexual assault allegations. The trial will also consider Trump's comments at a CNN town hall following the 2023 verdict when deciding damages. Trump is appealing the previous verdict, where a jury found he sexually assaulted Carroll and defamed her, and was ordered to pay $5 million in damages.

Judge Demands Answer: Will Trump Attend Rape Trial?

A federal judge has ordered parties in the E. Jean Carroll rape case to notify him by April 20 whether they will be present throughout the trial, scheduled to start April 25 in Manhattan federal court. The judge also rejected a request that names of anonymous jurors be released to lawyers, saying Trump’s latest public statements about a criminal case against him in state court show jurors might be harassed if their identities got out. Trump's lawyers did not respond to requests for comment on Kaplan’s order.
