Ruling blocking publication of book by Mary Trump (2020)
On June 30, 2020, Greenwald issued a temporary injunction blocking the publishing company Simon & Schuster from publishing the book Too Much & Never Enough: How My Family Created the World's Most Dangerous Man, written by President Donald Trump's niece Mary L. Trump. President Trump's brother, Robert S.
