Trump One Week To Pay $83.3 Million To E. Jean Carroll She’s Expressing ‘ Serious Concerns'

[Social Media]

 

Former President Donald Trump is facing a tight deadline as he races to cover millions in legal fines, with only a week left to pay the $83.3 million verdict in E. Jean Carroll's defamation lawsuit. Carroll, a writer, accused Trump of sexual assault, prompting a jury to order him to pay damages for defamation based on his attacks against her. The formal court judgment was entered on February 8, setting the payment deadline for March 9.

 

Trump has indicated his intention to appeal the judgment, but he must still comply with the court's requirements by either paying the sum into a court-controlled account or posting an appeals bond to guarantee his ability to pay. Seeking to alleviate the financial burden, Trump has requested the court to pause the judgment or allow him to post a substantially reduced bond while filing post-trial motions.

 

Carroll's attorneys, however, have expressed serious concerns about Trump's ability to fulfill his financial obligations. They argue that Trump is effectively asking the court to trust in his wealth without providing adequate assurance. Given Trump's involvement in multiple legal battles and his lack of transparency regarding his finances, Carroll's legal team questions the feasibility of him paying what he owes.

 

The court has given Trump until 5 p.m. Saturday to respond to Carroll's filing, with a ruling expected shortly thereafter. Trump's attorneys maintain that there is no risk of him failing to pay the judgment, citing his purported financial resources. Forbes estimates Trump's net worth at $2.6 billion as of September, with sufficient liquid assets to cover Carroll's judgment alone.

 

However, Trump faces a cumulative total of over $540 million in legal fines, including the judgment in the Carroll case and a separate $454 million fine in a civil fraud case. While he may not have enough cash readily available, Trump has various options to meet his financial obligations, such as borrowing against his assets or seeking assistance from wealthy associates. Additionally, he could sell off real estate assets to raise funds.

 

As the payment deadline approaches, Trump's legal team is also grappling with the fraud case judgment, with enforcement actions expected to commence if he fails to pay by March 25. Trump has sought relief from the court in that case as well, requesting a pause on the judgment or the posting of a bond.

 

The legal saga surrounding Trump's response to Carroll's allegations underscores the complexities of high-profile litigation and the significant financial implications for all parties involved. With the clock ticking, Trump faces mounting pressure to resolve his legal liabilities as he navigates multiple legal challenges.

Still no sign that Trump is going to put up the money for the appeal of this second verdict. The deadline is within a week.

[Maybole]

Is Trump running out of money? Does he face bankruptcy?

[Tug]

Looks like Jean Carroll might have to accept real estate instead of money perhaps 🤔 mar a lardo and the penthouse in the xtrump tower…….oh sorry I forgot the banks own them allready just like everything in trumps world it’s all leveraged to the max i suspect

Come on, he's...like...really really rich. He's told us that a thousand times. When has trump ever lied? LOL

 

Of course, he did have a few duffs along the way:

But when you inherit $412 million, plus dad co-signed all your loans, plus (per niece Mary) donny got a large allowance from age 3 until dad died (amounting to a major multiple of what trumpers here would earn in fifty lifetimes), you can have a few burps and still get a Game Show host job.

 

Interesting thing about some of trump's ventures...he partnered a few times with Bayrock Group and Tevfik Arif, such as in trump Soho and trump Int'l Hotel and Tower in Ft Lauderdale. This Arif fellow has a checkered personal history, as reported in that [bastion of liberalism] Forbes Magazine. Per a SSCI report:

 

"the U.S. Senate Select Committee on Intelligence laid out a slew of accusations against Arif: Information obtained by the committee suggests he was involved in Russian organized crime, money laundering and human trafficking dating back to at least 2000.”

Then there's Felix Sater, with a checkered history of his own.

 

"Two days shy of his anticipated congressional testimony, Russian-mafia tied businessman Felix Sater has been hit with a lawsuit accusing him of trying to launder looted money through the aborted Trump Tower deal in Moscow."

The linked Forbes article details other Russian individuals connected with organized crime who partnered with trump in re deals and even a Miss Universe pageant.

 

Maybe these guys want to pony up more cash to help out a convicted sex offender in need.

The deadline for Trump posting bond is approaching. 

 

I don't think he will.

 

Instead, as Ms. Carroll's attorneys file court requests to grab Trump's assets, he will object, because he has an appeal for the first verdict. And that issue will be litigated.

Agreed. So he will have an appeal running as well as a case against the NY. Delay on all fronts, exactly what he wants.

Trump again urges judge to delay $83.3 million payout to E. Jean Carroll

 

Trump really doesn't have the cash, apparently, even to post a bond for this relatively small case.  Trump seems to be cash poor, and he can't get a bond agency to help him out.

 

The next time someone here claims Trump is a successful businessman, that would be cringeworthy.

[lexxy]

I cant believe that orange headed small hander is lined up for a multi billion dollar payday with his cr@ppy social media site.. How do we take it off him?

[Danderman123]

Trump is practically begging the judge to reduce or delay his bond payment.

 

This is the same judge who Trump repeatedly insulted during the trial. I guess it never occurred to Trump to be nice to the judge.

 

 

[bendejo]

A reporter researched his properties and found there is one NYC building that he owns that's value is close to the size of the judgement.  He only lost because he was so exhausted from all that winning.

Trump requests a new trial in E. Jean Carroll defamation case
Trump's attorneys argued that the jury’s compensatory and punitive awards are out of proportion and should be cancelled.

 

March 6, 2024, 4:18 AM +07

Donald Trump’s attorneys on Tuesday filed a motion for a new trial in writer E. Jean Carroll's defamation case and asked a judge overseeing the case to cancel the judgment of $83 million dollars against the former president

Trump attorneys Alina Habba and John Sauer argue that “a district court may grant a motion for a new trial if the verdict is against the weight of the evidence.” Habba also contended that the jury’s compensatory and punitive awards are out of proportion and motivated by sympathy rather than evidence and should be canceled. 

 

Carroll’s attorney Roberta Kaplan declined to comment.  

This is a developing story.

Trump again seeks to delay $83M judgment in E. Jean Carroll case  -- March 5, 2024, 1:49 AM

 

Last month, (Judge) Kaplan declined Trump's initial request for a reduced bond or a delay, but asked for a reply from Carroll's lawyers. In a filing last week, her attorneys argued that the reasoning in Trump's request relief "boils down to nothing more than 'trust me.'"

 

Trump's lawyers responded by arguing that Carroll's concern about Trump's limited finances is contradictory, highlighting that at trial her lawyers emphasized Trump's wealth to convince the jury to reach a higher damages award.

 

"Plaintiff's current position -- that President Trump's ability to satisfy a judgment of $83.3 million is in doubt -- is 'clearly inconsistent' with her position barely one month ago that President Trump has $14 billion in assets and can thus easily satisfy an enormous punitive award," defense lawyers wrote.

Then Trump ran his mouth:

[Danderman123]

Trump still can't post bond for the second verdict.

 

It looks like Trump is having money troubles. You'll know it's bad when Mercedes leaves him.

[ozimoron]

I believe that Judge Kaplan has said she will make a decision on the stay today. As it stands, E J Carroll's lawyers can start working on seizing assets from Friday if there's no delay granted or bond payment made to permit an appeal.

Lots of disgruntled people on here.  Of course the fact the unanimous decision of the Supreme Court had nothing to do with it.

 

I keep hearing the same comments from the same disgruntled people about Trump this, Trump that for years now, not only this forum.

 

He slaughtered Haley and the best is yet to come.  Bye, Bye Biden.  You can fool each other here, but the majority of the American people see through the BS.  

 

The Teflon Don has struck again.  But do continue with your dreams.

 

Hey WALKER,  everyone is waiting for your thesis on the rigged outcome of the unanimous decision of the Supreme Court in the appropriate thread, of course.  
 

No doubt you have a valid excuse for the unanimous, repeat unanimous decision.  The secret squirrel file cabinet at Langley must have this privileged information.

Getting back to the topic, why hasn't Trump posted bond for his appeal?

He's a trifle impecunious right now.

[Danderman123]

Trump really, really wants to avoid having to post a bond for the appeal. He's even offering to testify again in a new trial.

 

As if Ms. Carroll's lawyers are going to agree to that.

 

It must be embarrassing to be a lawyer for Trump. Every time he gets a crazy idea, they've got to file it as a motion. Even though they know it's crazy, and they feel stupid presenting it to the court.

 

We should start seeing motions from the plaintiff seeking enforcement of the judgment soon.

What are you rambling on about, old man?

 

What unanimous decision? The ballot? Let trump run. Democracy ruled against him in 2020, though he has whined like a petulant child for nearly 4 years, and many of his goobers are too stupid to see through his lies. Maybe you still believe trump's lawyer Sydney Powell's claim that dead Hugo Chavez rose from the grave and wrote code that he uploaded to an Italian satellite that then altered voting machines? Maybe you think the Pillow Guy, any time now, is finally going to produce his proof?

 

If you mean "immunity", yes the SC will hear it beginning 25 April. If not immune, SC Smith will get down to prosecuting trump for trying to overthrow the govt. Never heard your excuse for why the loser trump called goobers like you to DC and sent them to the Capitol to 'fight like hell'. Do you have an excuse, or do fat old guys like you live vicariously through trump? Some of his goobers shat on the floor of the Capitol and rubbed it on the walls. Was that you? Others beat cops. Hate law and order?

 

I can see you love the bloated one. What are his policies? Do you even know? His "Build a wall and make Mexico pay for it" resulted in 52 miles of wall along a 1800 mile border in 4 years, and this much from Mexico: $0.00...and that despite having an R Senate and House for his first 2 years. His "unbelievable healthcare plan" to replace the Affordable Care Act turned out to be that, unbelievable, as in another trump lie. His Infrastructure Week never happened.

 

Now he claims he can end the Ukraine War in an afternoon. How? The same way he got Mexico to pay for his wall?

 

His goobers have to be 3 std devs left of the mean on the IQ Bell Curve to still believe any of trump's claims or lies.

 

You do seem obsessed with me. I guess I understand how someone who had an exciting and successful life would get under the craw of someone who has known only mediocrity since birth.

 

Maybe you can answer this question I can never figure out: how does someone with spare tires that could fit an A380 fit in an economy seat all the way back to southern California? To me it seems like a square peg into a round hole sort of puzzle.

Imagine Ms Carroll's shock when she legally seizes trump's apartment in trump tower and finds it's only 10.990 sf, and not the 33,000 sf feet he claimed for years in his bank and insurance fraud.

Another deflection.  Getting to be the new normal.

 

I guess you haven’t been keeping up.  Unanimous, yes Unanimous decision by the Supreme Court which allow Trump to remain on the ballot and ensure his re election.    
 

I suppose being bitter about being a desk jockey in the secret squirrel department, cloak and dagger division of the CIA versus a field operative can cause resentment.

 

Or it could have been the fact that you were not hand picked to be the CIA liaison officer by DEVGRU on the OBL mission.  
 

Does the CIA know that you “out” yourself on public forums, talk shop and post photos?

 

Real secret squirrels don’t do that.

 

Maybe that’s the reason for your termination.

Absolutely classic 

 

IMO Trump should just give her the finger and ignore her whining, He has 91 or something court cases from those with perpetual TDS so what's another going to matter? It's not like the judge will order him arrested or anything like that, as I doubt he wants to go into protective custody.

If he does, his base will love him for it.

What’s at stake is the whole of Trump’s ‘business empire’.

 

It’s got past his response to Carroll and is now all about how he responds to court orders.

 

His lawyers have filed a letter with the court asking for time to meet the Bond deadline (This Saturday).

 

If Trump fails to raise a bond or cash to enable an appeal the Courts will begin the process of taking Trump’s assets.

 

It’s at that point the world gets to see exactly what assets and debts Trump has.

 

I’ve said all along, it is my opinion that anyone whose assets exceed their liabilities is wealthier than Trump. We are very close to finding out if that is true or not.
