President Donald Trump has requested the US Court of Appeals to delay oral arguments scheduled for the following week concerning his appeal of an $83 million defamation judgment in favor of E. Jean Carroll. The appeal is set to be heard by the US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, with a panel consisting of Judges Denny Chin, Sarah A.L. Merriam, and Maria Araújo Kahn. Meanwhile, the US Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit held oral arguments on June 30 regarding the validity of Trump's use of the Alien Enemies Act, an 18th-century law, to expedite deportations. The panel for this case included Judges Southwick, Oldham, and Ramirez. The Fifth Circuit case is considered pivotal in determining whether the Trump administration can continue to use the Alien Enemies Act to accelerate deportation procedures. Both cases are receiving significant judicial scrutiny as they address legal challenges tied to actions taken during Trump's presidency.
