WASHINGTON – A federal judge rejected President Donald Trump’s request for more time to respond to New York writer E. Jean Carroll’s demand for $5.8 million she won in a civil lawsuit against him.

Carroll asked a federal court in Manhattan on June 30 to order Trump to pay her the money she was awarded when a jury found him liable in 2023 for sexually abusing her and then for defaming her by calling her assault allegations a "con job."

The Supreme Court had denied Trump's request on June 29 to review the jury's decision in the case. Trump asked for more time to respond to Carroll’s request.

U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan in New York denied the request in a one-sentence order July 4. Trump must now reply by July 7.

Fat Nixon has been abusing our legal system ever since he could first afford to sue someone. It's beyond time for the greedy raping liar and thief to pay up!
