The law firm representing Donald Trump in a lawsuit filed by former senior advisor A.J. Delgado has requested to withdraw from the case, citing an “irreparable breakdown” in the attorney-client relationship, according to court documents filed in Manhattan.

LaRocca, Hornik, Greenberg, Rosen, Kittridge, Carlin and McPartland, the firm representing Trump and his campaign, stated in the filing that they seek to withdraw due to the breakdown in relations with their client, the Trump campaign.

The lawsuit, brought by A.J. Delgado, alleges gender and pregnancy discrimination against the Trump campaign and former advisers Reince Priebus and Sean Spicer. Delgado claims she was fired from her role as Trump’s director of Hispanic outreach during the 2016 presidential campaign after becoming pregnant by her supervisor.

Jared Blumetti, the attorney representing the firm, requested to explain the details of the breakdown in camera, or privately, to the court. Blumetti emphasized that a breakdown in the attorney-client relationship is sufficient grounds for withdrawal, as established by past case law.

While Delgado objected to the firm’s withdrawal, calling it a “scheme to avoid compliance,” Judge Katharine H. Parker ruled that the firm must continue to represent the Trump campaign. However, she scheduled a hearing to discuss the matter further with the firm and the campaign.

Delgado, who is representing herself in the lawsuit, alleges that she experienced humiliation, degradation, and emotional distress due to discrimination by the Trump campaign after announcing her pregnancy. She describes the treatment she received as malicious, willful, and outrageous.
