A federal judge in New York has ruled that former President Donald Trump is liable for defaming writer E. Jean Carroll and will face a trial in January 2024 to determine what money damages he owes her. The jury in a separate civil trial found Trump had sexually abused Carroll and then defamed her, and the upcoming trial will focus solely on what money damages he owes her. Trump's attorney has said the ruling is "wrong" and that Trump will appeal, while Carroll's attorney has called it an "important victory" for her and all women who have been defamed.
