🙄 "#Trump asked for new trial in #EJeanCarroll civil case in which jury found him liable for sexually abusing & defaming her & awarded her $5m in damages.
In filing in Manhattan fed court Trump’s lawyers said $2m award for sexual abuse portion of verdict was “excessive” bc jury found Carroll was not raped & that the conduct Carroll alleged did not cause any diagnosed mental injury.
They also said $2.7m award for defamation claim was “based upon pure speculation” #legal https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/jun/08/trump-requests-new-trial-e-jean-carroll-case
