  • The judge said the case — which was litigated for years — is best tried in a different court.

A federal judge canceled an upcoming trial against Donald Trump and the Trump Organization over the former president's support of a multi-level marketing company, ruling that the Manhattan federal court wasn't the best place to try the case.
