Trump asks court to block BBC effort to obtain testimony and records from Ivanka Trump, Jared Kushner and Donald Trump Jr.

In Trump’s $10 billion defamation case against the BBC over the editing of his January 6, 2021 speech, his lawyers urged a federal judge on August 22 to reject the BBC’s request for help obtaining testimony and records from Ivanka Trump, Jared Kushner and Donald Trump Jr. The BBC says the three may have relevant personal knowledge; Trump’s side calls the effort harassment and improper leverage. No ruling on the BBC’s latest request had been issued in the reporting reviewed for this build.
