Judge Denies Trump’s Attempt To Subpoena Stormy

Law & Crime reports:

The New York City judge overseeing former President Donald Trump’s hush-money case has denied a defense request to subpoena several forms of documents from adult film actress Stormy Daniels. In a four-page ruling late Wednesday, New York Supreme Court Justice Juan M. Merchan said the 45th president’s requests were “overbroad” attempts to conduct discovery with a subpoena.

The first request asked for “all” the documents in Daniels’ possession related to a recently-released Peacock documentary about her life produced by NBCUniversal — spanning 18 different categories. Trump’s second document request asked for “all documents relating to communications” between Daniels and several other potential witnesses in the case — including Michael Cohen, Karen McDougal, and E. Jean Carroll.
