President Trump's lawyers are seeking the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn an $83.3 million defamation judgment against him for statements made in 2019 denying E. Jean Carroll's sexual assault allegations. They argue presidential immunity applies because the comments were made while Trump was in office in response to reporters' questions about his fitness for office.
