Mary Trump wins discovery ruling in family settlement dispute

An appellate court has granted Mary Trump access to documents she says will help prove she was fraudulently induced into a 2001 Trump family settlement after Fred Trump Sr.'s death.

On April 30, a panel of judges on the New York Supreme Court's Appellate Division, First Department, unanimously reversed a lower court ruling that had denied her motion to compel estate valuation materials. The court found the documents material to her affirmative defense in a breach of contract lawsuit brought by her uncle, President Donald Trump.
