Former President Donald Trump’s effort to dismiss one of the two lawsuits filed against him by writer E. Jean Carroll was rejected by a federal judge on June 29.
Trump had attempted to have the court dismiss a lawsuit filed by Carroll in 2019 accusing the then-president of defaming her when he denied having raped her in a dressing room at the Bergdorf Goodman department store in Manhattan in 1995 or 1996.
