Trump's Legal Battles: Mistrial, Defamation Suit, and Rape Trial Highlights.

TL;DR Summary
Former President Donald Trump has requested a mistrial in his civil battery and defamation trial, claiming that the judge has made "unfair and prejudicial rulings" against him. Trump's attorney has asked the judge to "correct the record" or provide greater leeway in cross-examining E. Jean Carroll. Carroll has accused Trump of raping her in the mid-1990s and then defaming her when he denied her claim. The judge's rulings include restricting Trump's attorney from asking Carroll additional questions and calling certain lines of questioning "argumentative" in front of the jury.
