Ivanka Trump Must Answer Questions in ‘Wild Thing’ Shoe Suit

U.S. District Judge Katherine Forrest in Manhattan on Friday said Trump must spend two hours responding to questions about the design of a shoe sold by her company.

“Ms. Trump’s public statements regarding active and comprehensive brand management lead to a reasonable inference that the shoe at issue would not have been released without her approval,” Forrest said in a three-page order. “In such a situation, a deposition is appropriate.”

“I had no involvement in the conception, design, production or sale of the ‘Hettie Shoe,”’ Trump said June 16 in a declaration filed with the court. “My involvement was strictly limited to the final sign-off of each season’s line after it was first reviewed and approved by the company’s design team.”

[Doesn't that sound like something her father would say?]
