Hopefully trial will resume today...
Thursday, January 25th:
*Trial continues (Day 5) (@ 9:30am ET) - New York – E. Jean Carroll vs. Donald John Trump. Amended complaint against Trump seeking new damages of at least $10 million, based in part on comments Trump made during a CNN town hall on 5/10/23.
U.S. District of Manhattan 1:20-cv-07311/defamation suit/1:22-cv-10016/damages
U.S. District Judge Lewis A. Kaplan presiding. Trump’s attorneys Alina Habba & Michael T. Madaio. Carroll’s attorneys Roberta Kaplan & Shawn Crowley.
These defamation charges were postponed by Judge Lewis Kaplan on 3/30/23. Carroll's first defamation lawsuit against Trump was filed in November 2019. But that case has been put on hold while Trump argues that a federal law protects him from being sued for defamation for comments he made while president. And was amended to Trump’s comments made on 5/10/23.
Trial began on 1/16/24 with jury selection. 9 jurors selected.
Case info from 5/22/23 thru 1/16/24 & Trial Day 1-4 (1/16-1/19/24) reference post #144 here:

1/21/24 Update: Carroll’s lawyers notified the court tonight that they intend seek additional damages for statements Trump made over the weekend about Carroll.
1/22/24 Monday, Trial Day x: Judge Kaplan: Juror 3 reported that he was ill. Rather than risk him coming together & having contact with you, we sent him home. He will COVID test today & report - we will not take testimony today. 1 or 2 of the lawyers are negative after test. Kaplan has canceled testimony for the day. Trump lawyer Alina Habba said she wasn't feeling well after having been exposed to Covid from one or both of her parents & her co-counsel, Michael Madaio, also was feeling under the weather. In court, Trump stood between Habba & Madaio, and none of them were wearing masks. If no one has Covid, the court is expected to resume tomorrow at 9:30am. Habba has asked that Trump be able to testify Wednesday, 1/24/24 instead of tomorrow because of the New Hampshire Republican presidential primary & Kaplan said he would consider her request. No trial on 1/24/24.
