Judge lifts ban on 'tell-all' book by Trump's nieceThe ruling allows publisher Simon & Schuster to print and distribute the 240-page book by Mary Trump, who dubs the US president 'the world's most dangerous man'. WASHINGTON: An appeals court judge in New York has lifted a temporary ban on the publication of a potentially explosive "tell-all" book by President Donald Trump's niece, court documents showed. Nevertheless Simon & Schuster "is not a party to the agreement," so the block of their publication of the book "is vacated," he ruled. In a statement, Mary Trump's attorney Ted Boutrous said the lifting of the prior restraint against the publisher was "very good news." Mary Trump's legal team said they were hoping for a July 10 hearing, which will most likely take place virtually.
