Contrary to popular belief, appeals courts DO NOT go over the evidence again to see if they agree with the jury's verdict and judgment. They are limited to legal issues, the conduct of the trial, the application of the law, and so on.
The whole case is/was bullshit. Nowhere but Manhattan would a case like this ever see the light of day. The fable of this sexual encounter defies logic, experience, and belief, which is why the accuser allowed the statute of limitations to run without filing a criminal complaint. It would not have been credible. Donald Trump ALWAYS travels with a posse of assistants, and he keeps detailed journals of his whereabouts and activities, for the specific reason of being a rich, notorious character, subject to these kinds of money-seeking accusations. This is why the *****-in-question could not even pin down the YEAR in which this elusive episode supposedly took place. Had she given a date, Trump could have easily proven it was all bullshit. Aside from that, what are the chances that such a notorious public figure - especially in New York - could have made his way into a ladies' fitting room without being noticed...well, look at who posted the OP. You have to be an idiot to give it any credence at all.
I don't know where this will end up legally. Courts of last resort are very reluctant to get involved in tort cases, but maybe this gross miscarriage of justice might get them to look. One can only hope.
