The Second Circuit Court of Appeals has handed down a ruling in President-elect Donald Trump's appeal of the verdict in E. Jean Carroll's defamation/sexual abuse civil suit against him. In a word: No.
The court declined to overturn the verdict.
A federal appeals court on Monday rejected President-elect Donald Trump's attempt to overturn a jury's verdict last year that found he sexually abused writer E. Jean Carroll in the mid-1990s.
The Second U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals decided "Trump has not demonstrated that the district court erred in any of the challenged rulings" and "has not carried his burden

Wasn't this the lawsuit filed after the NY Legislature passed a temporary law covering a specific time period allowing alleged victims of sexual abuse to sue for damages? Were other suits filed against others under this law or just Trump?

So this doofus court, probably full.of Obama and Biden lackeys ruled that the trial, made possible by an unconstitutional "bill of attainer," to harass a specific person within a limited time window, financed by a rabid Trump hater, and full of inconsistencies mostof which came from E. Jean Looneybin's fantasies and a Law & Order SUV episode stands up?

E Jean Carroll in her own words. There is a longer video of her w Anderson cooper but this is the part that she said and he went to commercial - https://www.bing.com/videos/riverview/relatedvideo?q=e+jean+carroll+anderson+cooper+interview&mid=CA75F5101ACB3DA1D431CA75F5101ACB3DA1D431&FORM=VIRE

Law and Order is a tv show. She wasn't even clever enough to fabricate her own malarky, she cribbed it from Dick Wolf. Or was it Wolf Dick?

So they are standing on absolutely no proof, no good reason and a ridiculously laughable story of a man who could have any woman going after a crazy old bag in a department store? That sounds like New York and Bragg. This court is populated by a bunch of fools and now everybody knows it.

Bill of Attender was a major reason why we rebelled against George III. Looks like there is still work to be done.

This was a loser for Trump from the git-go.
Second U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals . headed by New York Attorney DEBRA Livingston,(female) who teaches at Columbia University, was appointed by George Bush. The 2nd. Circuit contains Connecticut, Vermont, and New York, all Harris States.
He didn't have a prayer.

It's difficult for me to believe that the "evidence" - ie e jeanne weenie's testimony that "it for sure happened but I don't remember when so Trump can't prove he was outside of New York on that day" - could support the jury verdict.
Then there's the suspension of the statute of limitations, while apparently permissible, sure doesn't seem to comport with Due Process in view of the prejudice it imposes on the defendant's ability to marshal evidence regarding events that happened 30 years ago.
I'll have to try to read the opinion to see exactly what evidence supports the jury verdict. It will be a tedious and unpleasant read.

BTW, I forgot to mention above, in response to #1's question, that I read that some 2000 lawsuits were filed during the 1 year period allowed by the law.

Our government is corrupt folks. Trump needs to take this to a higher court to get it tossed. The case is clearly BS.

The fines are WAY out of line and THEY should be attacked. How do you defame a person who is virtually unknown anywhere. ? Same for the case in Atlanta for the ladies who fed ballots into the counting machines after sending everyone home wherein an ex mayor of NYC was fined. It is all left wing BUNK.

I think Ms. Carroll is an absolute whack job who likely has never been anywhere near Donald Trump. If she ever receives a single cent for this case it will be a miscarriage of justice. Carroll makes "Dr" Christine Blasey Ford (of the Kavanaugh case) seem legitimate..

In cases of rape and murder, an American citizen should be able to have a criminal trial. . .

The question of whether or not a woman should go to jail for falsely accusing a man of rape is an appropriate, necessary, legitimate question. Such charges not only cause the victim(s) and family members needless anguish, but may negatively/harmfully impact the lives and careers of the victim(s) and family members.
A recent example of false rape charges is the confession by the woman who lied in 2006 about three Duke University lacrosse players raping her. Another woman who accused two Connecticut college football player of raping her in 2016 admitted she made up the story was sentenced to a year in jail for those false rape allegations. In May of this year, a New Delhi, India court sentenced a woman who made a false complaint of rape to four years and five months in jail plus fined “for robbing the man of earning opportunities during the time he was in jail as an undertrial.”
In Texas, intentionally filing a false police report is considered a crime (Class B misdemeanor – Texas Penal Code 37.08) and “punishment can be a fine of up to $2,000, jail time of up to 180 days, or a combination. The amount of the fine or jail time may depend on the significance or intent of the false claim.”
Although such false accusations constitute anguish, suffering, and needless legal expense to all innocent victim(s), the humiliation to a world-renown individual and family, especially if designed for the purpose of humiliation and destruction, is beyond the pale—beyond basic human decency. The accuser, along with others who may be involved, may succeed and gloat in their successful efforts in this world, but may ultimately be held accountable for their deeds by our Glorious Judge of the universe.

What sort of ruling would you expect from a panel made up of two Obama Judges and one Biden Judge when it involves Trump?

Ah...a last attempt at a grab for power....I knew the rats would have something up their sleeves at the last minute....I'm no lawyer...but...it seems to me that this lying tart could be called in to testify again...and her lies exposed...I'm sure President Trump's lawyers are on this...and the only benefit the rats can possibly get...is...the fake news will carry it and try and demoralize WE MAGA supporters....trying to cast a cloud on the inaugural festivities....

She didn’t step up to make these accusations. She was appointed by the corrupt Bragg office to carry this ridiculous made up story into court. They promised her a huge payday and ‘free’ legal representation by lawyers who will get a large share of the settlement. She was just dumb enough to get NYC moronic jurors to believe her. In reality Trump was dating women who look like Melania. He wouldn’t have wasted the time of day on this psycho hag.

No common sense person believes this civil suit and this lying woman. Didn't she tell CNN she found rape sexy?
What a tool.
