I hope she does, and wins, and the fool mouths off again, and she sues him again, etc., etc., etc.,

Sheâs already achieved that purpose. And she might lose, which would be a negative precedent. Quit while youâre ahead

If she doesnât collect that would be very motivational for the donbald to keep on defaming.

Donât see Carroll allowing this decision to be wiped away, for her own vindication but also for what it means for victims of sexual assault. And the judgment has to be entered before it is appealed, right?

Itâs just a procedural thing to keep options open. He didnât actually file an appeal.
Hereâs that rarest of things, an actually useful twitter reply:
You only file the notice. His opening brief will set forth the errors of law & procedure he is appealing. Depending on the appellate courtâs briefing scheduling order, we should know what specifically he is appealing in 60 to 120 days.

Well, those other women have had since Nov 22nd to file, and AFAIK none has. OTOH theyâve got six more months to file until the statute of limitations goes into effect again, and maybe Roberta Kaplanâs phone is ringing.

The next judgement should include paying for 24/7 bodyguards for the rest of her life to protect her from Trumpâs mob.

Yeah, but the cost to fumigate it would be prohibitive.

Quadruple damages seems appropriate for a legally unrepentant sinner.
In addition,Boycott CNN. They learned nothing from their sucking up to Trump in 2015-16, and now are a non-journalistic platform for a violent looney tune.

A 757 that old might have negative value. The cost to convert it back to revenue pax or freight might exceed what they could get for it post-conversion.
I have a question for any lawyer who might be out there: does the judge have any leeway on the damages? For example, can judge Kaplan decide that Trumpâs behavior has been so egregious after the verdict that he is going to tack on an additional hundred million dollars in punitive damages?

She will get the moneyâŚ.in order to appeal Trump has to put up the money in a bond which will be paid to E. Jean Carroll. While waiting for the appeal, she could be pursuing the additional defamation claims. The entered judgements against Trump for essentially the same set of facts will speed the whole process up.

Trump is appealing the verdictâŚ.so at this point the time is what it is going to be and the money will be there when Trump looses because he has to post the bond plus interest to appeal. In the meantime it wouldnt really be very time consuming to sue him again.

Not exactly. Per txlawyer, if he wants to stay the collections discovery process, TFG needs to put up the money upon appeal. But he has not actually appealed, merely filed notice of intent to appeal. Youâre making assumptions and conclusions that are not available yet.

He filed a notice of appeal, it will belay things 60 to 120 days. When he has to brief the appeal he has to put up the bond. With this judgement already against him it makes it easier for E. Jean Carroll to prove the defamation again because it will be an adjudicated fact by then. Juries are the finders of what are facts so Trumps appeal will be limited to errors made by the judge. he is unlikely to prevail.

That was gishgallop level gibberish that I wonât bother picking apart.
I will say again: you are way ahead of yourself. The damages award has not yet even been entered into judgement.
BoyâŚyou sure can pontificate but you cannot take any push back
I do my best to embrace reality, and when others engage with me I insist they do the same, otherwise there is no basis for a conversation.
I didnât mean to suggest that it wouldnât require a lot of work. I meant only to suggest that the likelihood of a favorable judgment was high.

My language was ambiguous. I meant that the likelihood of victory and collection is much lower than you assume it is.
