2nd Circuit denies en banc review in Trump–Carroll defamation case

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit rejected President Trump’s bid for an en banc review of the $83 million defamation verdict won by E. Jean Carroll, keeping the ruling intact and leaving room for a potential Supreme Court appeal on presidential immunity; the majority denied the request to substitute the United States and to rehear the case, while a dissent urged reconsideration.
