Trump set to be deposed in lawsuit filed by former 'Apprentice' contestant

Former President Donald Trump will have to sit for a deposition sometime before Christmas as part of a defamation lawsuit filed by Summer Zervos, a former contestant on "Apprentice," a judge’s law clerk said Monday.

Zervos has alleged that Trump sexually assaulted her at the Beverly Hills Hotel in 2007 and defamed her during his campaign when he said she lied about it.

Earlier, in a 2016 statement, Trump had said that he had "never met her at a hotel or greeted her inappropriately a decade ago."

The two parties are still haggling over disclosure of certain documents but Zervos’ side is eager to depose the former president.
