Overview

• A Los Angeles judge set a 30-day deadline requiring West to appear in person for questioning.
• The deposition stems from Trevor Phillips’ April 2024 lawsuit alleging harassment, discrimination, a hostile work environment, and retaliation tied to Donda Academy and Yeezy.
• Court filings accuse West of sharing antisemitic views, berating Black employees, and proposing to shave students’ heads and build a jail at the school.
• Phillips seeks damages and an injunction to bar West and his companies from operating schools for minors in California.
• Legal documents note multiple failed attempts to secure West’s testimony, and his attorney, Eduardo Martorell, declined to comment on the order.
