Supreme Court Rejects Trump Appeal in Carroll Case

The Supreme Court on Monday refused to overturn a jury’s verdict that President Trump sexually abused E. Jean Carroll in the mid-1990s and defamed her.

Trump had argued that evidence, including the ‘Access Hollywood’ tape, was improperly admitted.

The decision means the $5 million judgment stands, a significant legal rebuke for the president.

The case has been a recurring political liability, and the court’s action closes one avenue of appeal.
