The motion, filed by Robert Trump's lawyers, seeks an injunction to
prevent Mary Trump and the publishing company from releasing the
book. They argue that family members had signed a settlement agreement
two decades ago related to the will of Donald Trump’s father, New York
real estate developer Fred Trump. The agreement included a
confidentially clause saying they would not "publish any account
concerning the litigation or their relationship,” unless agreed upon by
all parties.
Robert Trump said he never consented to the book being published and argued it was prohibited by the accord reached in 2001.
“President
Trump and his siblings are seeking to suppress a book that will discuss
matters of utmost public importance," attorney Theodore Boutrous Jr., a
representative for Mary Trump, said in a statement. "They are pursuing
this unlawful prior restraint because they do not want the American
people to know the truth. The courts will not tolerate this brazen and
baseless effort to squelch speech in violation of the First Amendment.”
President
Trump previously said during an interview last week that Mary Trump is
"not allowed" to write the book due to the nondisclosure agreement she
signed.
