Gloria Allred announced during a Tuesday press conference that her client Summer Zervos has filed a lawsuit against Donald Trump alleging the president-elect used his platform to falsely denigrate her and other women accusing him of “unwanted sexual touching.” Zervos, a former Apprentice contestant, first came forward with the accusations in the weeks leading up to the 2016 election.

At the time, she said that Trump thrust his genitals at her, groped her, and tried to have sex with her during a job interview several years after her appearance on his reality-TV show. Allred said that following her and other women’s accusations, Trump “knowingly, intentionally, and maliciously threw each of these women under the bus,” and that repeatedly calling them “liars” in public has caused great distress. The lawsuit calls upon Trump to either admit his “sexually inappropriate behavior” or fight them in court and explain himself.
