Former President Donald Trump will not testify in his civil trial regarding a rape allegation made by writer E. Jean Carroll. As a result of Trump’s decision not to testify, his defense team will not present any witnesses in the case.
Trump’s legal team failed to meet the deadline set by US District Judge Lewis Caplan to request his testimony. The defense team had previously stated that Trump would not testify or appear in court, despite Trump himself suggesting he might attend the trial during a recent visit to Ireland.Judge Caplan had warned that if Trump did not appeal to the court to allow his testimony by the Sunday deadline, it would be too late.
