Because the case is civil, E Jean Carroll must establish her claims by a preponderance of the evidence.
Carroll, 79, has accused Trump, 76, of raping her in a Bergdorf Goodman department store dressing room in late 1995 or early 1996, and then undermining her credibility and career by lying about it online. Tacopina said Kaplan, an appointee of Democratic president Bill Clinton, should have let him question Carroll about why she did not seek security camera footage of the alleged rape.Trump’s lawyer also challenged Kaplan’s statement that Trump might be “sailing in harm’s way” after his son Eric Trump discussed on Twitter how LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman was helping fund Carroll’s case.
Because the case is civil, Carroll must establish her claims by a preponderance of the evidence, meaning more likely than not, and need not meet the tougher criminal standard of proof beyond a reasonable doubt.
