The 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled in favor of former President Donald Trump in his legal battle with adult film star Stormy Daniels, ordering her to pay nearly $122,000 in legal fees to Trump's attorneys. This ruling is a significant victory for Trump, who is currently facing criminal charges in New York, and serves as a warning to those considering filing a lawsuit against the former president. The civil litigation is unrelated to Trump’s criminal charges, but both involve Daniels, who was paid hush money during the 2016 presidential campaign to keep quiet about an alleged affair with Trump.
