On Monday, the woman who just won $83 a million judgement against Donald Trump will appear on The Rachel Maddow Show.

MSNBC announced late today that Maddow will sit down with E. Jean Carroll for her first interview since a jury ordered former President Donald Trump to pay over $83 million in damages for defaming Carroll.

Carroll will be joined by her attorneys Robbie Kaplan and Shawn Crowley for the interview to discuss the case and a potential appeal from Trump.

While not a huge dent in self-declared billionaire wallet, today’s verdict is still, in the words of CNN’s Jake Tapper this afternoon, “quite a chunk of change.” The judgement will be appealed, as the former president indicated today, but overturning the decision could prove difficult for Team Trump.

Fox’s Neil Cavuto made a point of remarking that it was a “unanimous jury” verdict. He also noted that Trump’s attorneys have recommended the leading GOP candidate, who has used the various court cases against him as campaign backdrops, keep quiet. It’s still too early to know if he will comply.

Carroll’s attorney Roberta Kaplan was asked by Anderson Cooper today, if another lawsuit is on the table if Trump continues to defame Carroll.

Kaplan replied, “I’m too good of an attorney to answer that. I will tell you everything is on the table.”

The exclusive interview will air on Monday, January 29 at 9 p.m. ET on MSNBC.
