A former “Apprentice” contestant who last year accused Donald Trump of making multiple unwanted sexual advances before he became president asked a New York judge to deny a request to indefinitely delay gathering evidence in the case.
Summer Zervos sued Trump for defamation in January after he said she was lying about “phony" abuse. Trump argues the case shouldn’t proceed because he has presidential immunity from state lawsuits. On March 27th, he asked for a hold on gathering evidence until the judge had ruled on presidential immunity and a motion to dismiss -- and any subsequent appeals were resolved.
