The Justice Department on Oct. 13 filed a lawsuit against Stephanie Winston Wolkoff, a former aide to First Lady Melania Trump, alleging that procedures around the publication of the tell-all book she wrote violated a nondisclosure agreement.

In a lawsuit filed in the U.S. District Court in Washington, Justice Department lawyers said Winston Wolkoff failed to submit a draft of her book, “Melania and Me: The Rise and Fall of My Friendship with the First Lady,” to a government review prior to its release. The book, which portrays the first lady in an unflattering light, was published six weeks ago.
