The Initial Conference for this case was set for 9/9/2016 at 3:15 PM in Courtroom 1506, 40 Centre Street, New York, NY 10007.
However, in order to provide the Plaintiff (Katie Johnson) more time to serve Defendants with copies of the summons and complaint, the Initial Conference was moved back to October 14 at 10 AM.

UPDATE TRUMP CHILD RAPE CASE DISMISSED, NEW LAWSUIT TO BE FILED


The ..rape case against Donald J. Trump has been dismissed at the request of the Plaintiff and her lawyer,(Thomas Meagher)

Meagher filed to voluntarily dismiss due to a new witness having come forward that reinforces the allegations made by Jane Doe.
In the dismissed case, Jane Doe, aka Katie Johnson, alleged that Donald Trump raped her in 1994 when she was 13-years-old.

Here's the request for dismissal:
"The plaintiff and her counsel in Jane Doe v Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey E. Epstein filed today a Notice of Voluntary Dismissal pursuant to F.R.C.P. 41 (a)(1)(A)(i) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, without prejudice for refiling the complaint."

NOTICE OF VOLUNTARY DISMISSAL

(More from irontroll.com)

Considering that this lawsuit hasn't even begun yet, it's been pretty unusual so far.
Jane Doe originally filed in California...Unfortunately, she filed by herself, without hiring an attorney, and filed her lawsuit as a civil rights case.
The judge dismissed the case without prejudice because Doe did not state what specific civil right was involved.
Jane Doe found herself a lawyer and refiled again in New York, a better idea since it's the jurisdiction of Donald Trump and his co-defendant Jeffrey Epstein.
A preliminary hearing was originally scheduled in early September, but when neither Trump nor Epstein replied to subpoenas, it was rescheduled for October 14.

Mainstream media has largely ignored the rape lawsuit; but perhaps with the additional witness a solid case can be made against Mr Trump.
With two eyewitnesses now supporting Jane Doe's allegations, perhaps MSM will take a closer look.

A pedophile president will not Make America Great Again.

UPDATE: Sept. 27, 2016
Irontroll.com did not list their source for their claim that the case was dismissed because "a new eyewitness has come forward,"
Because of this, I cannot vouch for their claim.
It's entirely possible that the case was dismissed for some other reason.

Is that you can say whatever you want in a lawsuit filing, and it is privileged from being considered defamatory. However, that protection does not attach to publication of those allegations outside of the proceeding itself.
