Hide AdA hearing in the small claims court at Edinburgh Sheriff Court took place yesterday.
Ms Beyts’s lawyer, solicitor advocate Mike Dailly, said attempts by the US president-elect’s course to have the case dismissed were unsuccessful.
A three-day civil hearing will now take place in early April.
Mr Dailly said: “The Trump Organisation tried to get the case dismissed and failed. We now have a three-day civil trial called a proof over three days.

Edinburgh Sheriff Court confirmed the case of Carol Rohan Beyts against Trump International had been continued until April.
