Judge Lewis Kaplan told the parties outside the presence of the jury that any discussion of how Carroll's case is funded is not relevant. As recently as this morning, Trump posted on Truth Social that Roberta Kaplan, a lawyer for Carroll, was “financed by a big political donor.” This afternoon, Eric Trump, his son, posted on Twitter that the case was “being funded by political activist Reid Hoffman,” a co-founder of LinkedIn, and that he was doing it “out of pure hatred, spite or fear of a formidable candidate.”

In recent weeks, there has been extensive back and forth about this issue of litigation funding. Trump’s lawyers in mid-April asked for a one-month postponement so that they could look into the issue. Carroll’s lawyers said at the time that the financial support was irrelevant. The judge declined to delay the trial, but allowed the defense lawyers to conduct a narrow inquiry into the funding.
