Summer Zervos, a onetime “Apprentice” contestant who claimed former President Donald Trump sexually assaulted her more than a decade ago, agreed to drop the defamation suit she filed after he called her liar.
According to a filing Friday in New York state court, both Zervos and Trump agreed to drop the litigation, with each bearing their own legal costs. Trump had been due to sit for a deposition before Christmas, having failed in his attempt to get the suit thrown out earlier this year.
