A federal appeals court plans to quickly consider former President Donald Trump's claim that presidential immunity protects him from a New York writer's assertion that he defamed her by saying she fabricated her claim that he sexually attacked her in the 1990s
A federal appeals court will quickly consider former President Donald Trump’s claim that presidential immunity protects him from being held liable for statements he made in 2019 when he denied that he sexually attacked a New York writer in the 1990s, the court said Wednesday.
The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan issued an order to say it will expedite the appeal a day after Trump attorney Alina Habba told a three-judge panel of the court that the appeal raised “an important question that will affect the delicate balance between the judiciary and the executive branch for many years to come.”U.S. District Judge Lewis A. Kaplan has set a Jan. 15 date for a jury to decide damages in abrought by the writer, E. Jean Carroll.
In May, a jury rejected Carroll’s claim that Trump raped her in the department store’s dressing room, but it concluded that he sexually abused her.
