-- President Donald Trump scored a win Tuesday when a federal judge in New York dismissed a lawsuit by the Democratic National Committee against Russia, WikiLeaks and the Trump campaign claiming they conspired to hack its emails before the 2016 election.
U.S. District Judge John G. Koeltl based his ruling about Russia largely on a single legal issue -- that while the “primary wrongdoer” in the alleged criminal enterprise was the Russian Federation, it can’t be sued in the U.S. under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act, just as the U.S. generally can’t be sued abroad.
He said “the plausible allegations against the remaining defendants are insufficient to hold them liable for the illegality that occurred in obtaining the materials from the DNC.”The case is Democratic National Committee v. the Russian Federation, 18-cv-3501, U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York .
