The hearing is July 10. The publication date is July 28.
So this really applies to leaks more than publication.
Still looks like a First Amendment violation, though…

NY Court Blocks Trump Niece From Publishing Her Book
Looks like the value of Mary’s book just went up.
Judge Jeannine?
So a Trump annointed judge?
And the truthiness potential…
New York State judge. Suit filed in Poukipsie, Dutchess Co., NY.
Greenwald should be censured for prior restraint in violation of the 1st amendment.
One war at a time.
Just be ready to leak if this doesn’t go well. A nice PDF on Twitter that is searchable will suffice.
Elected judge, I’ll bet. Is Dutchess Co. Trump country red?

This appears to be the original filing by team donald…
There must be some pretty damning info in this book for them to fight it so much.
The tRumps use NDAs and litigation to intimidate weaker opponents. They have no idea how to fight people with money and good lawyers. Mary Trump’s book will publish as scheduled.
The book is coming out on 7/28. Unless there are advance copies, Simon n Schuster has plenty of time to win this.
