U.S. District Judge Jesse Furman of the Southern District of New York on Wednesday declined to impose sanctions on former Trump “fixer” Michael Cohen or Cohen’s attorney David M. Schwartz after citations to nonexistent cases were discovered in a November court filing.
Furman wrote that Schwartz’s submission of the citations was “embarrassing and certainly negligent, perhaps even grossly negligent,” but ruled that it was not done in bad faith.
