Lawyers for ‘Apprentice’ Contestant Summer Zervos and Donald Trump Expected to Have Deposition Showdown Before Christmas Following First Hearing of His Post-Presidency

ADAM KLASFELDOct 4th, 2021, 12:54 pm



Some six months after New York’s highest court dismissed Donald Trump’s appeal, his accuser Summer Zervos asked to schedule his deposition before Christmas during her first hearing of his post-presidency on Monday. The judge’s law clerk indicated that all fact-discovery in the case—including depositions of Trump and Zervos—will be wrapped up before Christmas.

Trump’s new lawyer signaled that she intended to file a counterclaim under New York’s new anti-SLAPP law, a statute designed to deter lawsuits intended to chill speech.

A former contestant of Trump’s reality TV show The Apprentice, Zervos filed her lawsuit in Manhattan Supreme Court three days before the former president’s tenure officially began. Zervos alleges that Trump groped her at the Beverly Hills Hotel in 2007.
