#BREAKING: #SCOTUS *denies* certiorari in one of the two E. Jean Carroll cases ("Carroll II," to the folks who follow closely).
That presumably clears the way for Carroll to collect the $5 million judgment (the $83.3 million judgment in Carroll I remains under appeal):

Analysis Summary
The Supreme Court rejected Trump's request to appeal the $5 million judgment against him in the Carroll II sexual abuse case, clearing the path for Carroll to collect that damages award. The separate $83.3 million judgment from Carroll I remains under appeal in lower courts. This decision, reported consistently by BBC, NBC, NYT, Newsweek, and CBS, essentially ends Trump's legal options to overturn the jury's finding that he sexually assaulted and defamed Carroll.
