Onetime Trump lawyer and fixer Michael Cohen was given the go-ahead to sue the Trump Organization for millions in legal fees, a New York court ruled.
Determining that a prior judge erred last November when he tossed out Cohen's lawsuit against former President Donald Trump's business empire, the Appellate Division in Manhattan concluded that the Trump Organization may be liable for his legal costs."[It] should not have been dismissed based on the finding that those fees were not, as a matter of law, incurred by reason of the fact that he had been an employee of defendant," the court ruled, according to ABC.
Cohen claimed the Trump Organization stopped footing the bills for his legal fees after he began cooperating with multiple inquiries. The New York appeals court ultimately emphasized in its 5–0 ruling that he was an employee of the Trump Organization at the time, meaning that he may have been entitled to reimbursements.
