Former President Donald Trump's onetime chief of staff Mark Meadows is facing a lawsuit from his publisher over the content of his book The Chief's Chief.

All Seasons Press claimed in its suit that Meadows promised the publisher that"all statements contained in the Work are true and based on reasonable research for accuracy" despite later telling Department of Justice investigators Trump was being"dishonest" when he declared he won the election, according to reports. Meadows's testimony surrounded the case against Trump related to the 2020 election.

The publishing company goes on to allege that only 60,000 copies were sold out of the first 200,000 prints of the book, which was released in 2021. All Seasons Press still advertises the book on its website. Now the publisher is seeking the $350,000 paid to Meadows in advance, $600,000 in damages, and at least $1 million for damage the company suffered to its reputation as a conservative press and loss of the book's expected profits.Meadows was Trump's fourth chief of staff, serving through the end of his term. As a result, he is among the original 19 co-defendants in the Fulton County, Georgia, election interference case.

Three co-defendants have since accepted plea deals, including Kenneth Chesebro, Sidney Powell, and Jenna Ellis. They will likely be expected to testify against the remaining co-defendants in this case.
