TL;DR Summary

The sex assault defamation trial of former President Donald Trump in New York was postponed after a juror called in sick, with Trump and the plaintiff, E. Jean Carroll, present in court. Trump's attorney cited COVID-19 concerns, requesting to call Trump as a witness on Wednesday due to the New Hampshire primary. The trial, seeking to determine damages for Trump's defamation of Carroll, follows a previous ruling ordering him to pay $5 million to her. Carroll's lawyers are now seeking at least $10 million from Trump in this case.
