Former U.S. President Donald Trump departs for his second civil trial after E. Jean Carroll accused Trump of raping her decades ago, outside a Trump Tower in the Manhattan borough of New York City, U.S., January 26, 2024.
"The record will reflect that Mr. Trump just rose and walked out of the courtroom," said Judge Lewis Kaplan.
Trump's comments have sparked death threats and vicious emails and tweets directed at Carroll, the lawyer said.
"You are not going to use a slide to represent how many tweets there were, you are not using that slide, period," Judge Kaplan said.
Carroll's lawyers have complained during the trial about Trump making comments that were audible to jurors while sitting with his attorneys at the defense table.
