1:24-cv-21050 · S.D. Florida · 2024
In 2024, ABC News agreed to a $15 million settlement after anchor George Stephanopoulos repeatedly stated on air that Donald Trump had been found liable for rape — a legally false characterization of the jury verdict in the E. Jean Carroll civil case. Brito PLLC attorney Alejandro Brito filed suit in the Southern District of Florida, survived a motion to dismiss before Judge Cecilia Altonaga, and fought to secure one of the largest defamation settlements in recent memory — plus $1 million in attorney's fees paid directly to the firm.
