✦AI Summary
A federal judge has ordered the disbursement of $5.8 million to E. Jean Carroll following a jury verdict that found Donald Trump liable for sexual abuse and defamation. Trump has already paid the funds into a court-managed account, and the ruling follows the Supreme Court's decision not to hear his appeal.
E. Jean Carroll can be paid the $5.8 million that was set aside after a jury found three years ago that President Donald Trump sexually abused her in 1996 before he became President and defamed her after she publicly revealed the attack, a federal judge ruled on Wednesday (July 8, 2026).
