Supreme Court Rejects Michael Cohen's Appeal Over Alleged Retaliation by Trump for Tell-All Book
Oct 21, 2024, 02:25 PM
The U.S. Supreme Court has declined to hear Michael Cohen's appeal to revive his civil rights lawsuit against former President Donald Trump and other federal officials. Cohen, a disbarred lawyer and former confidant of Trump, alleged that he was returned to prison in 2020 in retaliation for refusing to agree to conditions that would have barred him from publishing a tell-all memoir or speaking to the media. He claimed that his imprisonment violated his First Amendment rights and that he was placed in solitary confinement as part of the retaliation. The Supreme Court's decision leaves in place lower court rulings that dismissed Cohen's claims, effectively shielding Trump from this legal action. The high court's refusal to hear the case marks the end of Cohen's legal bid to hold Trump and others accountable for the alleged retaliatory imprisonment.
