Attorneys representing former President Donald Trump and the author E. Jean Carroll on Friday asked a Manhattan federal judge to relax his order for an anonymous jury in the upcoming Adult Survivors Act trial so that the attorneys—but not their clients—can know the jurors’ names.
Carroll’s attorney Roberta Kaplan of Kaplan Hecker & Fink signed the letter on behalf of both parties, arguing that “limited access” to the jurors’ names would help the attorneys prepare for voir dire and allow them to monitor the jurors’ social media use during the trial.
