Adult-film star Stormy Daniels has filed a court motion for US President Donald Trump to testify about her claim that they had a relationship.
Her lawyer wants sworn testimony from Mr Trump about a "hush" agreement the actress says she signed.
The attorney, Michael Avenatti, is also seeking a legal interview with the president's lawyer.
Ms Daniels alleges she had unprotected sex with Mr Trump in 2006 a year after he married Melania Trump. He denies it.
Mr Avenatti's motion, filed in a court in the Central District of California early on Wednesday, ramps up the legal duel between the porn star and the president.
Ms Daniels says she signed an agreement to keep quiet about her claims in exchange for $130,000 (£91,000) of "hush" money in October 2016, days before the presidential election.
In the court documents, Mr Avenatti said he wanted to take a deposition from Mr Trump and his lawyer, Michael Cohen, for no more than two hours each.

The lawyer said his aim was to establish if the president consented to the agreement, reports the Washington Post newspaper.
A deposition is out-of-court testimony by a witness - who commits to tell the truth on possible penalty of perjury - that may be used in a legal case.
More than 22 million Americans tuned in on Sunday night to hear Ms Daniels allege she was threatened by a stranger in a car park in 2011 to "leave Trump alone".
The exclusive reaped the highest ratings for CBS' 60 Minutes programme in a decade.
On Monday, Ms Daniels filed a lawsuit against the president, alleging the non-disclosure agreement was invalid because Mr Trump did not sign it.
She also sued Mr Trump's lawyer, arguing he defamed her by suggesting she was a liar.
While Mr Trump has denied her claims, his lawyers are seeking $20m in damages from Ms Daniels, arguing she broke the non-disclosure deal.
She has meanwhile reportedly extended her nationwide tour of strip clubs, Making America Horny Again, until November.
Ms Daniels is due to appear for two nights at a strip club in Washington DC in June.
She has also been touting a $14.99-per-month subscription to her naked web cam service.

Spaghetti and Chicken Meatball Soup Yield: 4 servings Time: 30 minutes Tomato soup meets spaghetti and meatballs in this one-pot, 30-minute crowd-pleaser. To keep chicken meatballs juicy and light, skip the bread crumbs (which can create dense or bland meatballs) and the browning (which can cause precious juices to evaporate). Instead, plop them into the simmering soup to cook through. Any juices they do release will be captured in the tomato soup, which is creamy from olive oil and Parmesan. Feel free to adapt this recipe to suit your preferences: Add chopped onion, crushed fennel seeds, dried oregano or chopped parsley or basil to the meat or the sauce. The pasta will absorb the soup as it sits, so it’s a dish best eaten right when it’s made INGREDIENTS 1 pound ground chicken or turkey 1 cup finely grated Parmesan, plus more for serving 8 garlic cloves, coarsely chopped 1 large egg Kosher salt (Diamond Crystal) ¼ cup extra-virgin...

'How I Met Your Father' I went through glad years watching that show, adored quite a bit of how it managed its capable cast, and don't trust in lamenting that time on the grounds that the beguiling reason of its pilot (now and again the individual who is by all accounts your heartfelt perfect partner isn't, however they might in any case be unimaginably unique to you) was double-crossed by its consummation (psych! She really is his heartfelt perfect partner LOL ha). Quite a bit of that show's prosperity lay in what you may very well call its home base energies. Like Living Single and Friends and different sitcoms, it put a lot of individuals - Ted (Josh Radnor), Robin (Cobie Smulders), Marshall (Jason Segel) and Lily (Alyson Hannigan), and Barney (Neil Patrick Harris) - in a lot of rooms doing a lot of odd things, and it looked as they unfurled. Simultaneously, the satire of HIMYM was elevated and somewhat incredible. It's not too known for its hooky, jokey ide...
