According to glavcom.ua:

The Federal Appeals Court for the Second Circuit upheld the jury's decision regarding Donald Trump's statements and ordered him to pay $83.3 million to journalist E. Jean Carroll for defamation. The judges approved the preliminary verdict, considering it justified based on the evidence. This information was provided with reference to CNN.

The appeals court also rejected Trump's argument about presidential immunity, stating that his statements about Carroll are not protected. The judges took into account his public remarks and criticism following the preliminary verdict, which led to the affirmation of the penalty amount.

The refutation is justified, but the appeals committee did not take her side. Carroll's attorney, Roberta Kaplan, expressed hope that justice would prevail. Trump's legal team considers the case a field action and states the need to represent his interests in the Supreme Court.
