Trump Must Submit To Questioning In Summer Zervos’ Defamation Lawsuit

Former President Donald Trump must undergo questioning in a defamation lawsuit filed by a former contestant on The Apprentice.

Former contestant Summer Zervos filed the suit after Trump denied her sexual assault allegations.

Zervos’ lawyer Moira Penza said: “He [Trump] cannot delay this case any longer,” referring to a New York state judge giving Trump a Dec. 23 deadline to submit to a deposition.

Trump’s new lawyer, Alina Habba, said the court “made its position clear today – Ms. Zervos must comply with the court’s directive and produce all relevant and outstanding discovery. In the meantime, we will be vigorously defending the President against this frivolous lawsuit.”

Back in 2016, Zervos claimed Trump subjected her to unwanted kissing and groping in 2007 when she asked him for career advice.

Trump dismissed these allegations as “lies” and a “hoax.”
