NEW YORK (Reuters) - Donald Trump’s niece accused him on Friday of trying to dodge accountability for defrauding her out of a multimillion dollar inheritance by claiming she took too long to sue.
Lawyers for Mary Trump made the accusation in a New York state court in Manhattan, where the 55-year-old psychologist is suing the former president, his sister Maryanne Trump Barry and his late brother Robert’s estate.
“The offensiveness of defendants’ past conduct — stealing tens of millions of dollars from their own niece — is perhaps surpassed only by the chutzpah of their current arguments for dismissal,” the lawyers wrote.

Look at me! I’m an Attention Whore!
Would that be under the “laches” clause? I seem
to vaguely remember hearing something about that
legal clause recently. If only I could remember
where....
Either the law has a limitation and a deadline to sue in this alleged situation or it doesn’t. If is does, and she sued beyond the deadline, then tough. Since her lawyer is not arguing the law and simply having an emotional outburst, I’d deduce that there is a deadline and they sued beyond it. Game Over.
Remember the morons claiming that if Republicans dismissed impeached because it was unconstitutional, they were dodging the important issues?
The TDS in this one is strong.
The case’s origins are in the 1981 death of Mary’s father, Fred Trump Jr, the older brother of Donald Trump, who left the then 16-year-old Mary a profitable real estate portfolio.
Mary Trump said her aunt and uncles were supposed to look after her interests but instead siphoned money away, and finally “squeezed” her out of the family fortune in a 2001 settlement related to the estate of Fred Trump Sr, who died in 1999.
She sued in September, just under two years after she claimed to learn what they did through a New York Times investigation into Donald Trump’s finances.
So NY Statutes of limitations is 6 years Fred died in 1999, so 22 years ago, but she did a settlement in 2001 and is basing the rest of the crap on what the NY Times says? Yeah good luck with that credibility angle.
Can she pass a 51-50 test????
Doesn’t sound like it.
She’s a psychologist. ‘nuff said.
Mary, Mary, quite contrary, shut your demented mouth, we don’t care-ie.
Mary Trump has a terminal case of Trump Derangement Syndrome. Lady, you lost get over it, bitch...
She’s a grifter and a loser.
The world would be a little nicer, if she would shut up.
So that's what's behind her TDS. Just plain old greed.
