Writer's Lawsuit Accusing Trump of Rape Can Proceed, Judge Rules
Briefly

A federal judge on Friday rejected former President Donald J. Trump's effort to dismiss a lawsuit in which the writer E.

Kaplan of Federal District Court in Manhattan, upheld a 2022 New York law that gives adults who claim to have been sexually assaulted years ago a one-time window to sue those they say abused them even if the period for doing so under the statute of limitations has long since expired.
