Donald Trump is poised to appeal the devastating $83.3 million award he has been ordered to pay writer E. Jean Carroll for defaming her and now he seems ready to ditch his attorney from that trial, Alina Habba, in exchange for new blood.

The potential shift was announced by way of a social media post on the former president’s platform, Truth Social, though it did not mention Habba by name. A representative for Trump did not immediately respond to a request for comment Wednesday.

Denigrating proceedings and the presiding judge in the lengthy online rant, Trump wrote: “I am in the process, along with my team, of interviewing various law firms to represent me in an Appeal of one of the most ridiculous and unfair Witch Hunts our Country has ever seen.”

Bringing new attorneys in for an appeal is common as appellate issues often feature different demands than jury trial issues. The announcement is notable however since it arrives just after Habba threw out claims herself against Carroll’s lawyer and then backtracked in letters she filed to the judge handling the Carroll case, U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan.
