UK High Court Dismisses Trump's Lawsuit Against Steele Dossier

The lawsuit, alleging data protection breaches over salacious claims, was rejected due to statute of limitations and lack of compelling reasons for trial.

  • The UK High Court has dismissed Donald Trump's lawsuit against Christopher Steele's Orbis Business Intelligence, citing the statute of limitations.
  • Judge Karen Steyn ruled there were no compelling reasons to allow Trump's data protection claim to proceed to trial.
  • The lawsuit centered on the Steele dossier, which contained unverified allegations about Trump's ties to Russia and was leaked before his inauguration.
  • Trump sought damages for alleged data protection breaches and personal distress caused by the dossier's salacious claims.
  • The dismissal marks another legal setback for Trump, who faces multiple legal challenges in the US and abroad.
