A New York judge on Thursday rejected a bid by Donald Trump to delay a $83.3 million civil defamation judgment in favor of writer E. Jean Carroll.
Trump had asked Manhattan federal court Judge Lewis Kaplan to pause the latest Carroll case judgment until after he rules on post-trial motions.
He later posted $5.6 million in cash as collateral while he appealed the jury verdict ordering him to pay her $5 million in that case.
Trump last month was ordered by a state court judge to pay a $454 million judgment in a civil business fraud lawsuit filed by New York Attorney General Letitia James.
But that soon could change if an appeals court declines to stay the judgment.
