Judge Demands Explanation for Alleged Citation of Nonexistent Cases by Michael Cohen's Former Attorney

A federal judge has ordered Michael Cohen's former attorney, David Schwartz, to explain the court cases cited in Cohen's request for early termination of supervised release, as the judge believes "none of these cases exist." The judge instructed Schwartz to provide copies of the court decisions and clarify Cohen's involvement in drafting the motion. Cohen's new lawyer also could not verify the court cases. If Cohen had any involvement in the mix-up, it could further impact his credibility as he is expected to testify against Donald Trump in a criminal trial next year.
