      The E. Jean Carroll defamation case was in federal court.

        It really is hard to keep track of all of his criminal trials.

          Yes, but the E. Jean Carroll case was a civil trial.

          The legal term for Engoron’s ruling (New York state civil fraud judgment) is “undertaking.” In the Carroll case (Kaplan, federal defamation), it’s “damages,” a large portion of which are punitive damages.
