Correct, but the POS has to put the money into escrow, so he won't have it either. That puts almost $90 million in escrow, diminishing his liquid assets, with another upcoming trial going for over $300 mill. & I think he is relying on the same Legal Team. Good luck...Trump already stated he plans on appealing. Until that has ran its course Carroll gets nothing.
You're asking a Trump supporter to stop defending Trump ??????Then why do you keep yammering about appeals and how she won’t get paid?
The point of punitive is punishment. He has to let go of $83 million addition dollars to be held in escrow if he decides to appeal. He still loses that money.
This has been repeatedly explained to you. You’re still yammering.
It has also been repeatedly explained to you that you can’t appeal, just because you don’t like the verdict. There had to be a valid reason to appeal. There isn’t one. Yet you keep yammering.
Any question you might have about this process has been repeatedly answered in this thread, yet you keep yammering.
Maybe you should just stop yammering, and listen to people who clearly know more about this than you.
Actually, that trial is over and all that awaits are Engoron's decisions. He set a goal of 1/31/24 but that is not in stone.Correct, but the POS has to put the money into escrow, so he won't have it either.

Strawman. When did I say she wouldn't get paid?
Personal attack noted.
Knocking down unfounded scenarios is quite enjoyable, thanx...Enjoy the rest of your day.
This has been covered multiple times. Enjoy the rest of your day.

This poster does this more times than not. It's a diversionary tactic when starting to lose the argument.Holy shit with you and the personal attack accusations. I’m not attacking you. I’m trying to help you understand where you are failing to grasp what has been repeatedly explained to you.
In a civil case the bar is set lower. Add to that equation the demographic of the jury pool and guilt is pretty much a foregone conclusion. Set the trial in a predominantly Republican district and the outcome would most likely be different.
Give me something better to work with and I might be interested in considering any of them. But, know this, snarky comments and personal attacks are not conducive to civil discussion and I will lose interest in anything you have to say.This poster does this more times than not.

Well, that sentence sure was a mess.Add the that the itter corruption of the defendant...
Dude, we see you. You've taken this tactic with me almost every time we've interacted with each other. So if you demand civility, look in the e-mirror.Give me something better to work with and I might be interested in considering any of them.

"Political bias optional; civility a MUST!"
Trump and his loyal worshipers always blame the victim, when they are the predator. It's how they roll.The word of an admitted ***** grabbrer vs the woman who actually won the trial. There was no affair. Please stop defending the sexual predator.

Trump has been adjudicated a rapist in a judge's ruling. So, to start, you will be voting for a rapist this November. However, because Trump is an utterly despicable human being. He has defamed his sexual assault victim, and a jury hit him with an $83,000,000 verdict. One would think that any decent, conscionable human being would say, "You know, I don't like Biden, but I can't support a rapist that defames his own victim.", one would think that would be the case.Trump lawyers to use ‘conflict of interest’ between judge, Carroll’s attorney in appeal of $83.3M jury verdict: ‘Insane’

"Donald Trump’s lawyers will use an “insane” and previously unknown “conflict of interest” between E. Jean Carroll’s lawyer and the judge presiding over her defamation case against the former president as the basis of their appeal seeking to toss the eye-popping $83.3 million jury verdict, The Post has learned.
Trump lawyer Alina Habba said she was unaware Manhattan federal Judge Lewis Kaplan and Carroll’s lawyer Roberta Kaplan worked together in the early 1990s at the same powerhouse white-shoe law firm until Saturday, when asked about it by Post columnist Charles Gasparino, who was told by a source that the judge was once Roberta Kaplan’s “mentor.
“It was never disclosed. It’s insane and so incestuous,” Habba said, insisting neither the 79-year-old judge nor Roberta Kaplan, 57, who aren’t related, disclosed the “conflict of interest” and a violation of judicial ethics rules.
Roberta Kaplan worked at Paul, Weiss Rifkin, Wharton & Garrison in Midtown from 1992 to 2016, before leaving to become a founding partner of Kaplan Hecker & Fink, according to her LinkedIn page.
“This is news to us,” she continued. “We are going to include this in our appeal and take appropriate measures. The fact it wasn’t disclosed is an ethics violation.”
During her early years at Paul Weiss, she worked as associate of the firm at the same time as Judge Kaplan, who was a partner there until 1994 when he was appointed to the federal bench by then-President Bill Clinton."

E. Jeanne Carroll probably shouldn't be counting her millions yet.
And so, the appeal process has begun and at least one reason cited in the article is that the "good judge" must have for forgotten to mention a conflict of interest and went ahead committed a violation of judicial ethical rules. Justice my ass.
Irrelevant to my point. If the trial was held in a Republican district, would the outcome be the same?The he should have assaulted her in a Republican district.
Maybe, maybe not. You're alleging the jurors were not impartial with zero evidence. Trump got a fair trial and lost.Irrelevant to my point. If the trial was held in a Republican district, would the outcome be the same?
I realize that. My point was made to counter Overtails ridiculous claim that there wad an "affair" between Trump and Carroll.Yes and there’s a picture of him standing right beside her.
People (even jurists) have political biases. Among democrats Trump is guilty (prejudged) of everything he's accused of. Among Republicans, he's given a benefit of doubt. Present me with evidence that this claim is not valid.Maybe, maybe not. You're alleging the jurors were not impartial with zero evidence. Trump got a fair trial and lost.
When I said "affair" I was speaking to the event, not a relationship.I realize that. My point was made to counter Overtails ridiculous claim that there wad an "affair" between Trump and Carroll.
It’s an irrelevant question. The issue happened where it happened.Irrelevant to my point. If the trial was held in a Republican district, would the outcome be the same?
