Donald Trump will be deposed under oath in a defamation suit brought by E. Jean Carroll, a writer who previously accused the ex-president of rape, a court ruled on Wednesday.
US District Judge Lewis A. Kaplan denied Trump’s request to pause the October 19 deposition, in the latest legal blow he’s faced since leaving office.
Trump’s lawyer Alina Habba responded in a statement after the ruling, ‘We look forward to establishing on the record that this case is, and always has been, entirely without merit.’
