TL;DR

Former President Donald Trump is appealing a $5 million judgment in the civil suit brought by E. Jean Carroll, who accused him of sexual assault. Carroll's lawyers have argued that Trump was not acting in his official capacity as president when he denied her allegations, and therefore cannot use the immunity that comes with the office. Trump's legal team has countered that his statements were made in the course of his official duties.
