NEW YORK — Lawyers for a woman who says former President Donald Trump raped her don’t want to question the ex-president before her federal lawsuit over the alleged assault is tried.
“We do not seek to depose President Trump,” said Roberta Kaplan, who represents Trump’s accuser, magazine journalist E. Jean Carroll, in a lawsuit that says Trump lied when he denied the rape accusation.
“He can depose our client,” Kaplan said Tuesday in Manhattan Federal Court.
