Firm sues shuttered Taj Mahal casino over ‘Trump’ signs

Billionaire Carl Icahn’s Taj Mahal casino continues to court trouble even after it closure last year.

The Associated Press reported that Taj Mahal is facing fresh lawsuits over the ownership of the signs that once adorned the shuttered casino.

Philadelphia-based Recycling of Urban Materials for Profit (RUMP) brought the operator of Taj Mahal to court last week in order to determine the ‘Trump’ signs’ rightful owner and, in the process, be able to get fair market value for the return of the controversial sign.

The recycling firm insisted that they are now the rightful owners of the Trump sign after the operator of the former Taj Mahal decided to hire someone to throw away the letters once they were removed. It estimated that the signs were worth more than $100,000.
