Supreme Court Rejects Trump's Appeal | US News

The Supreme Court has declined to hear Trump’s appeal in the E. Jean Carroll sexual abuse and defamation case, letting the jury’s verdict stand—for now. Trump’s legal team argued the trial unfairly relied on testimony from other accusers and improperly tied his presidential duties to the case, but the Court saw no reason to intervene. Carroll testified the alleged assault occurred in a department store dressing room in 1996, and the jury found him liable for both abuse and defamation, awarding her substantial damages. While the Court’s refusal to review the case is typical, it comes amid a flurry of major rulings that could shape Trump’s political future. This latest decision adds to his growing legal challenges, even as he continues to win some battles—like immunity from criminal prosecution—while facing mounting civil judgments and ongoing appeals.
