In a statement, Charles Harder, Robert Trump's attorney, said his client was "very pleased" with the move by Judge Hal Greenwald of the New York Supreme Court. Harder has represented President Trump in high-profile cases, including in litigation against the adult film actress Stormy Daniels. "We look forward to vigorously litigating this case, and will seek the maximum remedies available by law for the enormous damages caused by Mary Trump's breach of contract and Simon & Schuster's intentional interference with that contract," Harder said. "Short of corrective action to immediately cease their egregious conduct, we will pursue this case to the very end.
Greenwald ordered Simon & Schuster not to publish the book before the case is decided. In a statement, the publisher said it was "disappointed" in the order. "We plan to immediately appeal this decision to the Appellate Division, and look forward to prevailing in this case based on well-established precedents regarding prior restraint," Simon & Schuster said.This is breaking news.
