Donald Trump settles lawsuit against niece over publication of tax records
The parties said they will seek a dismissal with prejudice after filing a settlement letter in court, ending a 2021 dispute over Trump’s tax records.
- On June 16, President Donald Trump settled his 2021 lawsuit against his niece, Mary Trump, over alleged tax record leaks to the New York Times.
- Trump filed the 2021 lawsuit accusing Mary of joining an "insidious plot" to exploit his tax records, claiming she violated confidentiality provisions from a 2001 settlement over Fred Trump's estate.
- A 2023 court ruling dismissed Trump's related claims against the Times and ordered him to pay US$392,639 in legal fees; an appeals court later limited potential damages to "nominal damages."
- Both sides expect to seek a formal dismissal in the coming weeks, with the case closing with prejudice to prevent Trump from refiling the lawsuit.
- The 2018 Pulitzer Prize-winning investigation into Trump's finances prompted the dispute; Mary identified herself as a source in her 2020 book, Too Much and Never Enough.
