On August 14, 2018, attorney Charles Harder filed a lawsuit in arbitration against Omarosa Manigault Newman on behalf of his client Donald J. Trump For President, Inc. (Trump’s Political Campaign). It was Trump’s common practice- weaponized litigation in a forum where it was often rewarded as arbitrators are paid hourly compared to judges in state and federal courts.

In essence, she was being sued under an over-broad non-disclosure agreement for statements she made in her book, Unhinged, and subsequent whistleblowing. It was an offensive attempt to gag her and violated Constitutionally protected speech. Summary Judgment was granted in Omarosa Manigault Newman’s favor on September 27, 2021.

During discovery, it was also revealed this is not only a frivolous lawsuit, but not one person with the Campaign could identify a single lost dollar or vote as a result of Omarosa’s comments. In fact, it revealed Trump’s NDA’s are so egregious inept and over-broad, they are legally unenforceable. Sean Dollman testified to issues related to whether the Campaign was essentially paying people through third parties to get around disclosure rules. Depositions are located on our website.

Omarosa Manigault Newman said:
“Clearly, I am very happy with this ruling . Donald has used this type of vexatious litigation to intimidate, harass and bully for years! Finally the bully has met his match!”

John Phillips released the following statement:
As a lawyer, this was an unimaginable case- a United States President abusing the Constitution and Bill of Rights with outrageously unenforceable non-disclosure agreements. Since Omarosa came forward, and was sued, we’ve said this agreement was illegal and offensive. It took too long to finally get past the frivolous defenses, experts and lawyers like Charles Harder billing the Campaign millions of dollars while free speech was stigmatized. 

It’s over. We’ve won in Donald Trump and the Trump Campaign’s chosen forum. They now owe attorney’s fees. Whether the Campaign tries to bankrupt out of this ruling or it energizes more people to come forward and blow the whistle on corrupt government, it’s a win we can all be proud of. Kudos to Omarosa Manigault Newman for coming forward and taking this on.
