☆ Judge Criticizes Trump's Midtrial Mistrial Request in E. Jean Carroll Defamation Case

NEW YORK (AP) — The federal judge who presided over the jury trial that resulted in an $83 million award to writer E. Jean Carroll for her defamation claims against former President Donald Trump said Wednesday that his rejection of his lawyer's unusual midtrial mistrial request was not a close call. Habba said a mistrial was in order because Carroll, 80, was confessing that she destroyed evidence that should have been preserved for trial. Out of the presence of the jury one day, the judge even threatened to jail her if she didn't stop talking. The $83.3 million award by the jury two weeks ago came over statements Trump made while he was president. The jury rejected Carroll's rape claim, though the judge later said what the jury found would be considered rape in other jurisdictions.

Read previewDonald Trump appears to be treating his planned appeal in the second E. Jean Carroll defamation case like his former reality TV show, "The Apprentice." Tacopina withdrew from Trump's legal team shortly before the second trial began. That left Habba in charge of defending Trump for his second trial, which resulted in a considerably higher jury verdict. Trump, Rahmani said, "probably realizes that he lost the second Carroll trial so badly in part due to Alina Habba's limited trial experience and that he needs experienced appellate counsel." The judge, conscious of Trump's intent to appeal the second trial results, told as much to Trump in the courtroom before he testified.

☆ In any other case, Trump lawyer Alina Habba's antics would be grounds for malpractice, ethics lawyer says

Read previewDonald Trump's lawyer made headlines last week after she violated basic courtroom rules and proper legal procedure in the E. Jean Carroll defamation trial. Alina Habba's behavior would have opened her up to potential malpractice liability in any other case, said one ethics lawyer. But Trump is unlikely to sue Habba for malpractice, he said. "Trump wants a lawyer who will fight in the court of public opinion as much as the courtroom," Neama Rahmani, the president of West Coast Trial Lawyers, told Business Insider. "There aren't a lot of good trial lawyers who want to jump on that grenade."

Former U.S. President Donald Trump's lawyer Alina Habba cross examines E. Jean Carroll before Judge Lewis Kaplan during the second civil trial where Carroll accused Trump of raping her decades ago, at Manhattan Federal Court in New York City, U.S., January 18, 2024 in this courtroom sketch. A federal judge Thursday quickly lost patience with Donald Trump's lawyer as she grilled E. Jean Carroll on her income and social media history as part of the former president's civil defamation trial. said the judge, Lewis Kaplan, in response to defense lawyer Alina Habba's questions about how much money Carroll currently makes. The trial in Manhattan federal court is being conducted to determine damages Carroll is owed by Trump for defamatory statements he made after she aired that rape claim. Kaplan's impatience with Habba's cross-examination came a day after Trump clashed with the judge in open court.

Trump's lawyers asked to delay the E. Jean Carroll battery and defamation trial a month on Thursday. It is unclear how much of Reid's money granted through his nonprofit was used by Kaplan Hecker & Fink for the Carroll case. Seth Wenig/APOn Tuesday, Trump's lawyers asked the judge for a one-month delay to allow the "media frenzy" around his arrest to die down. Judge Kaplan has also complained about numerous attempts to delay the case in the past. But that litigation has been in limbo while appeals courts weigh in on whether Trump can even be sued in that case.
