Zervos’ lawsuit claims that Trump’s statements defamed her, and she and her attorneys — including attorney Gloria Allred — are asking Trump to retract them, apologize and pay compensation.

Trump’s attorneys have asked Justice Jennifer Schecter to dismiss the case. But if the judge allows it to continue, Trump’s presidential campaign may have to release any documents related to more than a dozen women, including Zervos, who have accused Trump of sexual misconduct. Trump and the accusers may also have to face questioning by lawyers about these claims.
