Judge in Stormy Daniels lawsuit against Trump, Cohen orders 90-day stay

The judge presiding over Stormy Daniels's lawsuit against President Trump and his longtime personal attorney Michael Cohen has delayed the case for 90 days.
Cohen requested the stay after he invoked his Fifth Amendment right this week, saying he could not effectively defend himself against Daniels's lawsuit because it might incriminate him in a separate federal investigation.
U.S. District Judge S. James Otero apparently agreed with that argument in a decision issued Friday. The judge, an appointee of former President George W. Bush, pushed the hearing to July 27, The Associated Press reported.
