U.S. Supreme Court Declines Michael Cohen's Civil Rights Retaliation Lawsuit Against Trump
Oct 21, 2024, 01:46 PM
The U.S. Supreme Court has declined to hear a bid by Michael Cohen to revive a civil rights claim against former President Donald Trump and various former federal officials. Cohen, a disbarred lawyer and former confidant of Trump, alleged that he was returned to prison in 2020 in retaliation for writing a book critical of Trump. The lawsuit sought damages, claiming that Cohen's re-incarceration was politically motivated and an act of retaliation. This decision effectively shields Trump and the other officials from legal action related to Cohen's claims. This was Cohen's last-ditch effort to revive the lawsuit.
