President Trump has secured his appeal in the ongoing E. Jean Carroll case.

Although the appeal is good news, President Trump was still forced to post a $91.6 million bond as an escrow payment pending the appeal.

This means that Carroll will be forced to wait and may not get any of the money at all—here’s to hoping she won’t! Collin Rugg shared more details:

“Donald Trump has posted a $91.6 million bond in the E. Jean Carroll defamation case.

Trump had to pay the money even though he is appealing the case. If he wins the case in appeals court, he can get the money back.

Unfortunately for Trump, he still has to fork up over $450 million thanks to New York Judge Arthur Engoron.

According to Forbes, Trump has $413 million in liquid assets and a net worth of $2.6 billion.”

A portion of Judge Lewis Kaplan’s ruling was presented by The Epoch Times:

U.S. District Court Judge Lewis Kaplan granted the request to stay the execution of the judgment pending appeal in his order on Tuesday, saying the bond was “deemed sufficient.”

“Enforcement of the Judgment, to the extent that the Judgment awards damages, is STAYED pending the final disposition of the appeal by the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit,” the judge wrote in his order.

Conservative influencer Travis writes: “The E Jean Carroll case will go down as one of the most ridiculous uses of the court system ever.

What she pulled off couldn’t be done to anyone else in this country. It was clear political targeting and a far left judge deciding what could and couldn’t be shown to the jury.

The Trump team can’t disprove her by showing where he was on the date in question, because she doesn’t even know the year.

They can’t point out that the dress she claimed to be wearing didn’t even exist because the Judge considers it irrelevant.

They can’t point out the fact that very vocal Trump haters like George Conway urged Carroll to sue because the Judge thinks it doesn’t matter.

They can’t point out the fact that she’s talked about her r*pe fantasies on the news because it’s not relevant to this case.

They can’t point out the fact that the law in New York was changed the day he left office just so she could sue.

Carroll can call Trump a rap*st but if he calls her a liar he’s liable for defamation? This case is a joke and she’s a joke.

The appeals court better do the right thing and fix this atrocity and hopefully Trump counter sues her and her donors.”

NBC News explained:

Trump now has five days to file a copy of the approved bond with the court clerk for the Southern District of New York.

After that, enforcement of the jury’s $83 million judgment against him in January will be put on hold.
