The U.S. Supreme Court has rejected Michael Cohen’s final attempt to revive a civil rights lawsuit against former President Donald Trump. Cohen, Trump’s former personal lawyer, had claimed that Trump and other officials violated his civil rights by placing him in solitary confinement in retaliation for writing a tell-all book about the former president.
Cohen, who was sentenced to three years in prison in 2018 for campaign finance violations and lying to Congress, was released in 2020 as part of a broader effort to reduce prison. . .
