What we can confirm

Multiple reputable outlets and legal-focused sources report that in June 2026 the U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear Donald Trump’s appeal seeking to overturn the federal civil jury verdict that found him liable for sexually abusing and defaming E. Jean Carroll and awarded her $5 million, thereby rejecting his bid to overturn that judgment. Follow‑up coverage in August 2026 notes the Court also denied a rehearing request, leaving the verdict final and unchangeable in any court.
