President Donald Trump said he will continue fighting what he called a fake case after the Supreme Court declined to hear his appeal of a $5 million civil judgment in favor of writer E. Jean Carroll.

"Surprisingly, the Supreme Court declined to 'review' a Fake Case brought against me by a woman I never met (Decades old celebrity photo line, standing with her husband, does not count!)," Trump wrote Monday on Truth Social.

"I will continue the fight against this Weaponization and Lawfare Case against me, including the ridiculous claim of Defamation, with all of my power and strength," he added.

"This Case is really against the United States of America, and all it stands for, and should never be allowed to happen to another President, or Candidate to be!

"New York State created a Law, for an instant speck of time, going back many decades, in order to wrongfully 'nab' me.

"It was tailormade, and this Injustice cannot be allowed to stand! Thank you for your attention to this matter."

Trump's legal team also responded to the court's decision, calling Carroll's lawsuits a "Democrat-funded travesty," adding that "President Trump will keep winning against liberal lawfare."

Carroll's attorney, Roberta A. Kaplan, said the decision "affirms once and for all the jury's unanimous verdict that President Donald J. Trump sexually assaulted and defamed E. Jean Carroll."

"His multiple efforts to appeal that verdict have all failed, and today's ruling ends his quest to avoid accountability for his actions," Kaplan said.

The Supreme Court declined to review Trump's appeal of a $5 million civil judgment awarded to Carroll after a federal jury found Trump liable for sexually abusing Carroll at Bergdorf Goodman in Manhattan in 1996 and for defaming her in 2022 statements.

Trump's petition argued the trial was tainted by evidentiary rulings, including testimony about other alleged sexual assaults and the admission of the "Access Hollywood" recording.

Carroll urged the court to reject the appeal, arguing Trump's petition presented no genuine conflict in the law and that any alleged trial errors did not affect the outcome.

The Supreme Court receives about 7,000 to 8,000 petitions each term and grants review in roughly 80 cases.

Trump separately appealed an $83.3 million defamation judgment in Carroll's favor, which the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld in 2025.
