Donald Trump just had his counterclaim against E. Jean Carroll dismissed by a federal judge.

He had sued her for making damaging false statements against him.

Here’s more from Fox News:

A federal judge dismissed a counterclaim by former President Donald Trump in the defamation case leveled against him by E. Jean Carroll on Monday.

Judge Lewis Kaplan of the Southern District of New York dismissed Trump’s claims that Carroll made false statements during the case that damaged his reputation.

Carroll was awarded $5 million in May in a similar case against Trump after a jury found that Trump had sexually abused Carroll in 1996 and then defamed her in 2022.

Trump has continually claimed he did nothing wrong in the case where Carroll was awarded $5 million. After Caroll won her first lawsuit, she filed another after Trump’s CNN appearance a few months ago.

The judge in this case is a Bill Clinton appointee, in case you were wondering.
