court held as the trier of fact, i find trump s testimony rings hollow and untrue. defendant intentionally violated court order by making public attacks on a judge s law clerk despite two prior court orders not to do so. court find defendant $10,000, defendant committed repeated and persistent fraud in the transaction of business by fraudulently misstating the value of his assets. all of that is just from that one case that the attorney general won against trump and of course the district attorney intends to use both of the e. jean carroll cases against trump if trump takes the witness stand. if donald trump testifies in the case, the district attorney would refer to the e. jean carroll cases in cross- examination this way. quote, jury awarded e. jean carroll $83 million in compensatory and punitive damages for defamatory
