WASHINGTON, July 28 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump's lawyers are asking the Supreme Court to overturn an $83.3 million defamation judgment he was ordered to pay to writer E. Jean Carroll, Axios reported on Tuesday.
Court records showed earlier this month that Carroll has collected nearly $5.63 million from Trump.

A different jury in 2024 ordered Trump to pay Carroll $83.3 million, based on his original 2019 denial during his first White House term.
Trump's latest appeal reported by Axios comes a month after the justices declined to hear his bid to overturn the $5 million verdict that jurors ordered him to pay Carroll.
