Former President Donald Trump's lawyers have filed a motion in federal court in Manhattan, asking for a new trial or a reduction in damages in a case brought against him by writer E. Jean Carroll, who testified that Trump had sexually abused her in a New York City department store in the 1990s. Trump's attorneys argued that the jury's verdict was not supported by the evidence and that the award of $5 million in damages was "grossly excessive." The court has yet to rule on the motion.
