Mary Trump’s publisher gets court to lift order blocking book – Saudi Gazette

NEW YORK “” A New York appeals court cleared the way late on Wednesday for a publisher to resume distribution to booksellers of a tell-all book by Donald Trump's niece, Mary Trump, despite the objections of the president's brother.

The New York state supreme court appellate division said it was lifting a temporary restraint that a judge put on Simon & Schuster a day earlier that sought to block distribution of Too Much and Never Enough: How My Family Created the World's Most Dangerous Man, The Guardian newspaper reported.

Although the book was scheduled to be published on July 28, Simon & Schuster said thousands of copies of the 75,000-copy first run of the book had already been sent to bookstores and others.

The appeals ruling, written by Judge Alan Scheinkman, left in place restraints against Mary Trump, the book's author and the president's niece, at least until a hearing due on July 10.

Attorneys for President Donald Trump's niece and her publisher filed separate notices of appeal Tuesday afternoon after a New York State trial judge halted the publication of the niece's promised tell-all book about the Trump family.

Dutchess County Supreme Court Judge Hal B. Greenwald earlier Tuesday agreed to a preliminary injunction
