Former and possibly the future President of the United States, Donald J. Trump, is suing former MI6 officer at High Court. The Donald is bringing a data protection claim against Orbis Business Intelligence and Christopher Steele, its founder, who prior to this ran the Secret Intelligence Service's Russia desk.
The court order, published on Thursday, states that a two-day hearing in Trump's legal action is scheduled to be heard on October 16, which is believed to the first hearing in the claim.
While there are no more details about this case, President Trump is not expected to attend.
Steele as you may know, was the author of the Steele dossier, which alleged that Trump has been "compromised" by the Russian security service, the FSB. The dossier was leaked to BuzzFeed in 2017 and it also alleged that Russian President for life,Vladimir Putin "supported and directed" an operation to "cultivate" Trump as a presidential candidate for "at least five years."
The claim by Steele turned out to be balderdash and Trump consistently denied the lies.
Steele and Orbis Business Intelligence were previously sued for libel by Russian national Aleksej Gubarev over the publication of the dossier, claiming they were legally responsible for BuzzFeed publishing the dossier.
However, in a judgment in October 2020, Justice Warby dismissed the claim and may possibly be a stooge of the Russians, but that is yet to be proved.

See how that works?
