June 26 (UPI) -- Michael Cohen's lawyers on Monday argued more than 12,000 files seized April 9 during an FBI raid should be protected, citing attorney-client and work product privileges.
Special counsel Robert Mueller executed the raid to find information about a $130,000 payment Cohen, President Donald Trump's former lawyer, made to porn star Stormy Daniels prior to the 2016 presidential election. Daniels has said she had a sexual encounter with Trump in 2006, which the president has denied.
