Donald Trump plans to argue that a New York law allowing a writer to sue the former U.S. president over claims that he raped her decades ago is unconstitutional, according to a court filing.
Lawyers for Trump said in a filing made on Monday in Manhattan federal court that they would move to dismiss the lawsuit filed last month by E. Jean Carroll in part on grounds that the law spurred by the #MeToo movement is invalid.
Trump has denied Carroll’s claim that he raped her in a dressing room in a Bergdorf Goodman department store 27 years ago. The former Elle magazine columnist is suing Trump for defamation and battery under New York’s Adult Survivors Act….

Trump’s lawyers in the filing said the law “is an improper ‘claim revival’ statute which violates the United States Constitution and the New York State Constitution.”

Carroll had sued Trump for defamation in 2019 for denying her allegations, and a trial is scheduled in that case for April…..
