In a recent ruling, Judge Lewis Kaplan denied former President Donald Trump's motions for a mistrial in the defamation case brought against him by columnist E. Jean Carroll. Judge Kaplan ordered Trump to pay Carroll $83.3 million. Trump's attorneys argued that Carroll had deleted messages, including death threats, which they claimed were grounds for a mistrial. However, Judge Kaplan found that Trump's arguments had no merit and were entirely pointless, stating that Carroll had no duty to preserve the evidence because she didn’t anticipate litigation. Additionally, Kaplan noted, 'Mr. Trump has offered no evidence that he ever even...'. The jury had previously found that Trump must pay Carroll more than $83 million.
