Damages Released: Carroll Receives $5.6M After Trump Appeal Denial

A Manhattan federal court released more than $5.6 million that Donald Trump owes E. Jean Carroll from their 2023 sexual abuse and defamation verdict after the Supreme Court denied hearing his appeal. The funds, held in the court’s CRIS registry, were released following a judge’s order, despite Trump’s attempts to delay. Carroll’s team welcomed the payout; Trump’s appeals had previously failed. Separately, a 2024 defamation verdict awarded Carroll about $83.3 million for Trump’s comments, with both awards tracing back to a 2019 New York Magazine feature about Carroll’s book.

Judge orders release of roughly $5.8 million from Trump–Carroll verdict

A Manhattan judge ordered the release of about $5.8 million (including interest) held in a court registry as part of Trump’s 2023 defamation verdict against E Jean Carroll, following the Supreme Court’s denial of review; Trump has appealed. A separate 2024 defamation award against him is $83.3 million and was secured with a bond. The Cris system kept funds in escrow during appeals to prevent manipulation, and Carroll’s team sought timely disbursement after the ruling."
