President Donald Trump is trying to force E Jean Carroll to pay back the $5.6 million he was ordered to pay the former Elle magazine writer after a federal jury found him liable for sexual abuse and defamation. That money was disbursed to Carroll from a court-controlled escrow account on July 9. But the president's legal team is seeking an emergency injunction that would order Carroll to return the payment to the account in the hopes that the Supreme Court will grant him a legal Hail Mary and reverse the judgment, sending the money back to him. That payment to Carroll " more than three years after the jury's verdict " "should have been the end of this case," her lawyers said. "But Defendant now demands yet another unprecedented remedy. ... The judgment here is final, the money has already been disbursed, and Carroll is entitled to keep it." |
