Trump’s Appeal to Supreme Court Rejected in Libel Suit
Former President Donald Trump’s lawyer, Alina Haba, announced that they would appeal the decision to the Supreme Court after a lower court rejected Trump’s attempt to revive presidential immunity as a defense in a libel suit. However, Haba later stated that they would continue to pursue justice and find an appropriate solution.
The case revolves around a claim made by a woman named Carol, who alleged that Trump raped her in 1995 at a branch of the Bradford Goodman luxury store chain. She first made this claim four years ago and has now filed a libel suit against the former president for his denials. Carol claims that Trump slandered her by calling her words a scam and even claimed that she was “not his taste.”
The court’s decision to reject Trump’s attempt to revive presidential immunity as a defense is a significant blow to his legal efforts in this case. The rejection means that Trump cannot use his former status as president as a shield in this particular lawsuit.
It remains to be seen how the appeal process will unfold and what the Supreme Court’s decision will be. In the meantime, the legal battle between Trump and Carol continues as they seek to find a resolution to this highly contentious and publicized case.
