Let's recap: It appears the judge in this case, Lewis A. Kaplan, worked with Carroll’s lawyer, Roberta Kaplan, and officiated at her wedding. Carroll’s other lawyer was also a law clerk for Judge Lewis A. Kaplan. That Lewis Kaplan didn’t reveal these conflicts of interest is enough for him to face major consequences, but clearly, he should have recused himself from the case.
The judge ought to publicly confirm or deny the association.

OR the video of Jean Carroll in which she said she would do anything to help Biden beat Trump. Also she has a history of these baseless claims.

They should make the “jury” pay her that 83 million dollars.

Not sure these amount to more than apparent conflict of interest. It could add up to a case though, I don’t know if this is more than click bait.

If it’s not an Exclusive Breaking Bombshell I can’t be bothered.

This judge should be impeached, removed from office and disbarred.
But as he is a judge in New York State it will never happen.

I think the major bombshell in this case is that not one iota of evidence was presented at the trial. It was just her accusation.
Normally, in a trial, there has to be evidence displayed and the evidence is contested to be verified or proven false.
What do people automatically say when they are convicted in a trial and they think they are innocent. They will say they are not guilty. Trump said that and the statement theoretically will cost him $83 million.
Of course, this whole thing will be dismissed sooner or later. With most people it would be sooner, but since it is Trump, it will probably be later.

I think the question is has this type of situation ever been used to successfully reverse a previous case’s outcome? Does any case impact like that depend solely on the judge themselves admitting they were wrong and dismissing it or not, at their sole and complete discretion? Or would other ? Appeal courts have to WANT to get involved?

Here are a sample of images of Tweets by this person Carroll, that were suppressed during the trial and could not be shown to the jury:
Note:These are not tweets from her to Trump. I believe these were tweets to other people that ended up with the Trump defense team.

I think the question is has this type of situation ever been used to successfully reverse a previous case’s outcome? It happens all the time in civil lawsuits.
Even if the original verdict in favor of the plaintiff is allowed to stand, the damages are often reduced on appeal -- sometimes all the way down to $1.

Love to see Trump counter sue for court and atty costs. Sue the plaintiff, her atty, and the judge.

It is difficult to get a Judge to recuse himself. The legal community is somewhat incestuous. For example, judges aren't conflicted out due to lawyers appearing before them who contributed to their election campaigns. I literally worked on a Judge's campaign responding to political, union, and business groups surveys which led to endorsements and donations and the Judge didn't recuse themselves when I appeared before her.
The law firm in question, Paul, Weiss, Rifkin, Wharton & Garrison currently has over a thousand attorneys. In that Plaintiff's counsel may have worked with the Judge over 30 years ago probably isn't enough to conflict out the Judge.

I believe I read last week the judge hack was quoted as saying, “I barely knew him”.
