A federal appeals court in New York upheld a civil jury verdict against President Donald Trump for sexually abusing and defaming writer E. Jean Carroll, ordering him to pay her $5 million in damages. Carroll accused Trump of raping her in a New York department store in the mid-1990s, with a jury later finding him liable for defamation in 2022 for denying her allegations.

The court ruled unanimously that Trump demonstrated no errors in the trial proceedings that would warrant a new trial. Trump is appealing another defamation verdict from January 2024, where he was ordered to pay Carroll $83.3 million in damages.
