Trump to Face Second Defamation Trial by E Jean Carroll in January 2024.

A federal judge has set a date for a second defamation trial brought by E Jean Carroll against Donald Trump for January 2024. Carroll is seeking at least $10m in damages. This raises the possibility that Trump may have to defend himself in three trials early next year as he seeks the 2024 Republican presidential nomination. Carroll claims that Trump defamed her in June 2019 when he denied having raped her in the mid-1990s. Last month, a Manhattan jury ordered Trump to pay Carroll $5m for defamation and sexual abuse in a separate lawsuit.
