Carroll&#8217;s lawyers have recently sought to amend the complaint to include comments Trump made about the verdict of another lawsuit. In response, Trump has filed a counterlawsuit against Carroll on defamation charges.<\/p>\n<p>In a separate lawsuit filed by Carroll, a New York jury found Trump liable for defamation and sexual abuse against Carroll in civil court. However, Trump was not found liable for rape.<\/p>\n<p>The 2019 lawsuit had been on hold after Kaplan denied a motion in April to merge it with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/judge-denies-trump-motion-to-dismiss-e-jean-carroll-defamation-lawsuit\/\" title=\"Judge rejects Trump's motion to dismiss E Jean Carroll defamation case.\">previously decided case<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\">Click here<\/a> to read more from The Washington Examiner.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Judge Lewis Kaplan rejected former President Donald Trump&#8217;s request to dismiss the defamation lawsuit filed by author E.
