Jean Carroll. The case stems from remarks made by Trump during a town hall event on CNN, where he &#8220;doubled down&#8221; on his previous comments about Carroll.<\/p>\n<p>A federal jury in New York found Trump liable on May 9 for committing battery against Carroll and later defaming her when he denied her claim that he raped her in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/tuesday-afternoon-update-latest-on-tucker-carlson-biden-2024-who-warns-about-sudanese-biolab\/\" title=\"Tuesday Afternoon Update: Latest On Tucker Carlson, Biden 2024, WHO Warns About Sudanese Biolab\">department store dressing room<\/a> in the 1990s. The defamation lawsuit involved Trump\u2019s comments from a Truth Social post in October 2022, referring to Carroll\u2019s allegations as a \u201ccomplete con job\u201d and saying that she \u201cis not my type.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Attorneys representing Carroll have proposed amendments to the first of her two defamation lawsuits against Trump, which would hold the former president liable for remarks made at a CNN broadcast on May 10. The lawyers argue that Trump&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/e-jean-carroll-sues-trump-again-over-cnn-town-hall\/\" title=\"E.

Jean Carroll seeks new damages from Trump after CNN Town Hall.\">substantial punitive damages award<\/a> in her favor.<\/p>\n<h3>Trump Denies Accusations<\/h3>\n<p>During the town hall, Trump called the verdict a \u201cfake story\u201d and denied he knew Carroll. He continued to deny the accusation in a Truth Social post on Tuesday, claiming the Carroll case is \u201cpart of the Democrats playbook to tarnish\u201d his name and likeness.<\/p>\n<p>Attorneys for Trump filed a notice of appeal in New York on May 11, contesting the federal jury\u2019s verdict that found him liable for committing battery and defamation.<\/p>\n<h3>What&#8217;s Next?<\/h3>\n<p>According to Reuters, attorneys for Carroll said in a letter to U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan on Monday that because \u201cTrump\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/amber-heard-tells-jurors-people-want-to-kill-my-baby-in-the-microwave\/\" title=\"Amber Heard Tells Jurors: \u201cPeople Want to Kill My Baby in the Microwave\u201d\">alleged defamatory statements<\/a> were essentially the same, the only open issues are whether he was immune for making the first statement, and if not what damages he owes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It remains to be seen what the outcome of this case will be, but it is clear that the legal battle between Trump and Carroll is far from over.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Donald Trump may face $10m in damages in a defamation case filed by E.
