Supreme Court won’t block Trump from paying Carroll $5 million
TL;DR
The Supreme Court declined to review Trump’s appeals of a 2023 jury verdict finding him liable for sexual abuse and defamation of writer E. Jean Carroll, meaning he must pay Carroll a $5 million judgment (plus interest). He remains subject to a larger $83.3 million defamation judgment from a separate trial, which he is still appealing, and the court gave no explanation for its decision.
