WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014\u00a0The Supreme Court\u00a0on Monday again rebuffed President Donald Trump\u2019s push to\u00a0throw out\u00a0a jury\u2019s $5 million finding that he sexually abused the writer\u00a0E. Jean Carroll\u00a0at a New York City department store in the mid-1990s and later defamed her.<\/p>\n

The Republican president\u2019s lawyers had asked the justices to reconsider their refusal to hear his appeal. The court denied Trump\u2019s petition along with several others.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s unusual \u2014 although not unheard of \u2014 for the court to grant such requests.\u00a0Trump paid\u00a0the judgment shortly after the court declined to take up his appeal in June.<\/p>\n

Trump and the Justice Department are also asking the high court to toss out a second Carroll verdict totaling\u00a0$83 million. They argue he\u2019s immune from being sued over comments he made about her in 2019, when he was president. The court has not yet acted on that appeal.<\/p>\n

Carroll is a longtime advice columnist and former TV talk show host. She testified at a 2023 trial that Trump turned a friendly 1990s encounter into a violent attack in the dressing room at Bergdorf Goodman, a luxury retailer across the street from Trump Tower in Manhattan. The jury found Trump liable for defaming Carroll when he denied her allegation in 2022.<\/p>\n

Trump has denied any wrongdoing.<\/p>\n

The Associated Press does not identify people who say they have been sexually assaulted unless they come forward publicly, as Carroll has done.<\/p>\n
