E. Jean Carroll expresses ‘very serious concerns’ Trump won’t pay $83M judgment
by Zach Schonfeld and Ella Lee - 02/29/24 2:16 PM ET
Advice columnist E. Jean Carroll expressed “very serious concerns” Thursday that she won’t be able to collect the $83 million from former President Trump that a jury awarded in Carroll’s defamation lawsuit last month, citing Trump’s various legal woes.
“He simply asks the Court to ‘trust me’ and offers, in a case with an $83.3 million judgment against him, the court filing equivalent of a paper napkin; signed by the least trustworthy of borrowers,” Roberta Kaplan, Carroll’s lawyer, wrote in court papers.
The new filing responds to Trump’s demand that his trial judge delay enforcing the eight-figure sum as the former president attempts to get the verdict reduced or eliminated entirely in post-trial motions. In the alternative, Trump asked the judge to allow him to post bond in a “substantially reduced amount.”
Opposing those demands, Carroll pointed to the more than $454 million judgment in Trump’s civil fraud case, which only grows in interest each day it’s left unpaid.
“To begin, recent developments give rise to very serious concerns about Trump’s cash position and the feasibility (and ease) of collecting on the judgment in this case,” Carroll’s lawyers wrote.

So sue him!

I hope he doesn't.

E. Jean Carroll will not see a dime of Trump's money in her lifetime. Trump would rather spend $166M on legal fees to delay and eventually welch on the E. Jean Carroll judgement, out of spite.

Too bad there can't be a citizen's class action suit for intentional politically motivated lawfare. We need to take measures into place to demotivate these POS '
Putting that bitch in the poor house, would be a good start.
