Trump is headed to court Tuesday to argue that presidents can't be sued for defamation. Here's what's at stake.
Story by acollman@businessinsider.com

An appeals court is set to weigh in on E. Jean Carroll's defamation suit against Donald Trump.

Trump and the DOJ argue that he can't be personally sued for statements he made in office.

Carroll's lawyers argue that the statements in question had nothing to do with his job.

A defamation lawsuit against former President Donald Trump will be heard by the District of Columbia Court of Appeals on Tuesday, and while the case stems from a rape allegation, what's at stake is whether presidents can be sued for comments they make in office.
