President-elect Donald Trump on Tuesday asked a federal court of appeals to reconsider taking on his request for a new trial in the defamation case brought — and won — by writer E. Jean Carroll.

In December 2024, a three-judge panel on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit turned down a substantially similar request. The panel determined the district court had not made any error or “combination of” errors that “affected” Trump’s “substantial rights.”

Now, Trump is asking for the full court to consider the civil case — and, necessarily, to reconsider the argument about errors anew.
