Lawyers for President Trump asked for writer E. Jean Carroll's consent to delay the $5 million awarded to her by a 2023 jury, and signaled they plan to ask the Supreme Court to reconsider his appeal of Carroll's sexual abuse and defamation case, according to an attorney for Carroll.

Carroll's lawyer, Roberta Kaplan, wrote in a court filing Tuesday that Mr. Trump's lawyer called her with the request Monday, soon after the Supreme Court declined to hear his appeal. Later Monday, Kaplan wrote, she informed Mr. Trump's team that "Carroll does not consent," and asked whether the president would agree to the immediate disbursement of the funds Carroll has waited years to receive.

In a separate filing Tuesday, Kaplan asked a judge to set a faster-than-normal schedule to disburse $5 million in damages awarded to her by a 2023 jury, which found Mr. Trump liable for sexual abuse and defamation. Kaplan wrote that Carroll is also due an additional $779,783 in interest.

Kaplan said she intends to motion the federal court in New York for the funds' release, and requested "that the court direct [Trump] to respond to the motion within seven days, or by July 7, 2026, rather than the usual fourteen days."

She pointed to a June 2023 filing in which she said the two sides agreed Carroll could collect if the Supreme Court denied a petition to hear the case. The court did so Monday.

1. The $5 mil...

... is already in an escrow account, so Donnie Dinky-Dick will have to pony up the interest, which is a tidy sum all by itself. He's still operating under the mistaken belief that the rules don't apply to him.
He expects the SCOTUS to reconsider his appeal. Guess again, asshole.

2. I guess they're not used to getting a woman's consent for anything.

7. Deadline Legal Blog-'Time for him to pay': E. Jean Carroll moves to collect after Trump's SCOTUS rejection

The Supreme Court declined to review Trump’s petition on Monday. On Tuesday, Carroll’s lawyers said it’s “time for him to pay” the $5,779,783 he owes.

When the Supreme Court declined to consider President Donald Trump’s appeal against E. Jean Carroll on Monday, she moved a step closer to collecting her $5 million (plus interest) from one of the two civil cases she won against him.

On Tuesday, her lawyers said the president was still trying to put off paying but that it was “the end of the line” and “time for him to pay Carroll.”

They made those statements in a court filing to the New York district court that oversaw her 2023 trial, where a jury found Trump liable for sexually abusing the writer in 1996 and defaming her in 2022. Carroll’s lawyers said that “after four years of litigation across every level of the federal court system, it is time for this case to end.”

The latest potential hitch is that her lawyers said a lawyer for Trump has asked if they would agree to further delay so he can ask the Supreme Court to reconsider its refusal to review his petition. Carroll’s lawyers declined another postponement, noting a prior stipulation between the parties provides for payment upon the denial of Trump’s petition.

They added that there’s no reason to think the court would reconsider its denial, seeing as it just rejected Trump’s petition without any justices signaling interest in the case. It takes four justices to grant review.

“Accordingly, the Court should direct the Clerk to disburse to Carroll the value of the judgment including post-judgment interest, which amounts to $5,779,783.00 in total as of the date of this filing,” Carroll’s lawyers wrote to the district court on Tuesday. They urged the court to “reject his latest effort to delay and instead bring this long-running litigation to an end.”

A judge has slapped down President Donald Trump's latest attempt to dodge the $5.8 million payment a New York court ruled is owed to writer E. Jean Carroll, court records show.

New York federal court judge Lewis Kaplan on Saturday denied Trump's motion to stall in Carroll's sex abuse case and ordered the cash to be paid on Tuesday, according to court records and Lawfare senior editor Roger Parloff.

Trump argued on Friday that he needed more time so his new attorney could get caught up on the case. But Carroll's attorney Robbie Kaplan called the excuse just that; an excuse.

"Defendant’s assertion that he cannot respond to Plaintiff’s Motion on the timeline ordered by the Court appears to be little more than yet another play for time," wrote Robbie Kaplan.

"We can only assume that Defendant is seeking, through the instant motion, to buy time so he can try to concoct some new basis to put off paying Plaintiff."

Parloff, who shared the filings online Saturday, identified Trump's new attorney as Josh Halpern and argued Trump's motion contained a fatal flaw.

"Trump’s known for 5 [months] that his lede [attorney] was leaving," wrote Parloff on X. "[He] has co-counsel who’s been on case since day one."
