NEW YORK (AP) — An attorney for a longtime advice columnist who won an $83.3 million defamation award against Donald Trump suggested Monday that a new defamation lawsuit was possible against the ex-president after he resumed verbal attacks against her at a weekend rally.
“As we said after the last jury verdict, we continue to monitor every statement that Donald Trump makes about our client, E. Jean Carroll,” Kaplan said.

The trial judge instructed the jury that it was only to determine what damages, if any, Trump owed as a result of his 2019 statements.
That jury, in awarding Carroll $5 million, also found that Trump defamed her with statements made in October 2022.
