TL;DR Summary

Donald Trump's attorneys have called for a reduction in the $5 million awarded to E. Jean Carroll after a federal jury found that the former president sexually abused her in the 1990s. The attorneys argued that the damages were excessive and should be reduced to under $1 million. If the judge does not accept the reduced damages, a new trial should be allowed, they said. Carroll's attorney called the arguments from Trump's lawyers frivolous. Trump has vowed to appeal the decision.
