Donald Trump lost three of his lawyers in one day when attorney Joe Tacopina filed a declaration requesting the withdrawal of his firm's representation of the former president in multiple lawsuits.
Donald Trump is facing four criminal indictments and a total of 91 felony charges. One of these four cases alleges that the former president falsified business records over a hush money payment to former adult film star Stormy Daniels to keep an alleged affair secret in the weeks before the 2016 election. Trump, the clear front-runner for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, has pleaded not guilty to the case's 34 felony counts and has denied any wrongdoing in this and the other cases against him.
Tacopina withdrew his firm's legal services from the hush money case only two months before the trial was set to start, at the end of March. Tacopina also requested to withdraw his firm's legal services from E. Jean Carroll's civil defamation and battery case against Trump, which awarded the former Elle columnist $5 million in damages last May.
