55. No. The jury found in Carroll's favor. Trump is asking the Supreme Court to overturn this judgement.

Sunday

E. Jean Carroll sued Trump for defamation. The jury unanimously found Trump liable and awarded a 5 million dollar judgement.

Trump countersued Carroll after she called him a rapist. That suit was dismissed by a judge.

The judgment for Carroll has been upheld at every appellate stage so far. Now Trump is asking the Supreme Court to overturn it.
