(US).- Donald Trump has won his fight to have his name removed from the closed Trump Plaza after suing the company that owned the casino for negligence in holding his naming rights to the property. The property developer who sold both the Plaza and Taj Mahal where he is also suing to have his name removed and has seen both properties fall into a state of disrepair his company says.

Workmen were already removing the Trump wording on Monday 6th October after the company that owned the Plaza agreed. The Taj Mahal has only 6 weeks or so left of cash and unless a buyer comes in quickly will also close in November.

An auditor for Trump’s company found both casinos in disrepair, and Trump argued that both had become insufficiently luxurious to bear his name in lights under the terms of a licensing agreement when he sold the casinos.

Trump’s daughter Ivanka said the holding company that operates the casinos had agreed to let workers remove the large “Trump” signage from the Plaza.

“This represents a great victory for us,” said Ivanka Trump, an executive at the Trump Organization. “This has been an ongoing struggle and we’ve been litigating it for some months.”
