The lawsuit was reportedly filed on Tuesday in Dutchess County, New York where Trump blasts the paper and his nice for an “insidious plot” to acquire private information.
Check out what the Washington Times reported:
According to the Daily Beast, the lawsuit was filed Tuesday in Dutchess County, New York, and accuses the liberal newspaper and the family member of an “insidious plot” to obtain his private records.
It claims that The Times persuaded Ms. Trump to “smuggle records out of her attorney’s office and turn them over to The Times” despite her having signed a confidentiality agreement in 2001.
Mr. Trump’s lawsuit seeks damages “in an amount to be determined at trial, but believed to be no less than One Hundred Million Dollars,” the Daily Beast reported.
Times reporters David Barstow, Susanne Craig, and Russ Buettner were not party to Ms. Trump’s 2001 agreement, but the lawsuit claims they were “directly responsible,” citing an earlier interview the niece had given the Daily Beast. It also claims the reporters were “motivated, at least in part, by their actual malice” toward Mr. Trump.
Ms. Trump told the Daily Beast on Tuesday that her uncle “is a f—-ing loser, and he is going to throw anything against the wall he can.”
