President Donald Trump asks the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn an $83.3 million defamation jury verdict against him in E. Jean Carroll’s case, according to court filings reviewed and reported by multiple outlets. Trump’s attorneys argue that statements he made during his presidency are protected by presidential immunity and therefore should not lead to personal civil liability. The petition seeks Supreme Court review of the larger defamation judgment. CNBC and other reports also note that the Supreme Court recently declined to hear an earlier appeal tied to another, separate defamation verdict in Carroll’s litigation, involving a $5 million award. The current filing focuses on the $83.3 million amount from the jury’s determination. The requests come as Carroll’s case remains part of ongoing legal proceedings, with the immunity argument central to Trump’s appeal. The sources provide consistent descriptions of the petition’s purpose—seeking to have the defamation award dismissed or overturned on immunity grounds—without indicating the Supreme Court’s response to the latest request.
