Former President Donald Trump is suing the Manhattan judge overseeing the criminal case against him, according to a legal filing on Monday reported by The New York Times.
Trump, who is accused of falsifying business records to cover up a 2016 “hush” payment to adult film star Stormy Daniels, has spent weeks now railing against Judge Juan M. Merchan. One ex-prosecutor likened his attacks on Merchan — and Merchan’s daughter — to the behavior of a “mob boss.”
