President Donald Trump took urgent court action this week against writer E. Jean Carroll, arguing that her use of a $5 million sexual abuse defamation payout would make the funds “irretrievable.”<\/p>\n

A 2023 jury found Trump liable for sexually abusing Carroll in a Bergdorf Goodman department store dressing room in 1996 and defaming her when she went public with the allegations, according to the AP.<\/p>\n

The jury awarded her $5 million. With interest, the total reached $5.8 million, according to court records. Carroll’s attorneys said that she has invested the funds in a retirement account.<\/p>\n

According to court records, the Supreme Court declined to hear Trump’s appeal on June 29. Carroll collected the full amount by July 14.<\/p>\n

“Defendant has lost before a jury, the district court, a unanimous Second Circuit panel, the full Second Circuit, en banc, and the Supreme Court of the United States,” wrote in a court filing.<\/p>\n

Carroll’s lawyers noted it was Trump’s seventh appeal across two related cases. U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan said Trump “has been stalling this case for years.”<\/p>\n

Trump asked the Supreme Court to reconsider its denial \u2014 a procedure that succeeds roughly 0.08% of the time, according to Carroll’s filing. He also asked a federal appeals court to order Carroll to hand the money back.<\/p>\n

Her lawyers had previously told the court the money would go into a plain interest-bearing account \u2014 but Carroll put it somewhere else.<\/p>\n

“Now that the funds have been released, they are investments for her retirement,” wrote in a July 27 filing.<\/p>\n

Trump’s lawyers called that a “bait-and-switch” \u2014 she had used the promise of a secure account to block an emergency court order, they argued, then moved the money into stock market investments once it was out of court control.<\/p>\n

“That reversal is devastating to Plaintiff’s opposition,” Trump’s lawyers wrote.<\/p>\n

The funds are now “subject to Plaintiff’s whims,” his lawyers argued, pointing to her “publicly announced plans to distribute money recovered from President Trump to third parties.”<\/p>\n

“President Trump faces irreparable harm,” his lawyers wrote, demanding Carroll return the money to the Court Registry Investment System \u2014 a secure court-controlled account where it had sat since 2023.<\/p>\n

“This extraordinary request is procedurally improper, substantively meritless, and yet another example of Defendant’s pattern of ‘slow-roll[ing] his defenses, asserting or inventing a new one each time his prior effort to delay the case fails,'” fired back.<\/p>\n

Trump’s rehearing petition has since been distributed for Supreme Court conference. Carroll asked the appeals court to hold the return-the-money motion until the Supreme Court acts. Trump’s lawyers said the court should rule now.<\/p>\n
