Supreme Court ends Michael Cohen's retaliation suit against Trump, other federal officials

Oct. 21 (UPI) -- Ex-Trump lawyer and "fixer" Michael Cohen's most recent legal challenge against former President Donald Trump ended Monday after a U.S. Supreme Court ruling.

The high court ruling keeps in place a lower court decision that says Cohen is not able to pursue his legal challenge asserting that then-President Trump, then-U.S. Attorney General William Barr and other federal prison officials had allegedly violated Cohen's civil rights by putting him in solitary confinement for writing a tell-all book.
