Judge dismisses Trump’s defamation lawsuit against Carroll for statements she made on CNN

08-08-2023 16:20

A U.S. judge dismissed Donald Trump’s defamation counterclaim against the writer E. Jean Carroll, handing a fresh legal defeat to the former president as he seeks another White House term, writes Reuters.

U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan in Manhattan said Carroll’s statements, made on CNN the day after she won a USD 5 million jury verdict against Trump for defamation and sexual abuse, were at least “substantially true”, and Trump failed to show she made them with actual malice.

Alina Habba, a lawyer for Trump, said “We strongly disagree with the flawed decision and will be filing an appeal shortly”.

Trump, 77, filed his counterclaim in a second defamation lawsuit by Carroll, 79, who is seeking at least USD 10 million. A trial is scheduled for Jan. 15, 2024.
