E. Jean Carroll says President Trump defamed her by saying she was lying and motivated by money when she claimed he raped her in a dressing room in the 1990s.

"The President of the United States is not an employee of the Government within the meaning of the relevant statutes," Kaplan wrote in a 59-page ruling released in U.S. District Court in Manhattan on Oct. 27..

Carroll's lawyer Robbie Kaplan, who is not related to the judge, said "We are not at all surprised that the current Department of Justice, which filed its motion to intervene in E Jean Carroll's case at the request of the White House, is appealing Judge Kaplan's decision." , where Trump was represented by private attorneys, for nearly a year before the Justice Department intervened and had the case removed to federal court, as it sought to substitute the government for the president as a defendant.
