## Resource

E. Jean Carroll is poised to receive $5.8 million held in escrow after a 2023 jury found Donald Trump sexually assaulted and defamed her — a verdict now cleared by the Supreme Court, with the judge approving the payout. Trump’s legal team is rushing to block the payment, calling it politically motivated and claiming opponents are weaponizing the courts. The money was already deposited by Trump, and this comes on top of the $83 million in defamation damages awarded earlier this year. The case stems from a 1996 assault in a department store dressing room and Trump’s alleged defaming of Carroll in 2019. His lawyers insist he’s not her type and deny all allegations, while Carroll’s team remains silent on the latest court maneuver.
