Sept. 19 (UPI) -- A $15 billion lawsuit filed by President Donald Trump against the New York Times was rejected by a federal judge Friday.
Judge Steven Merryday in Tampa, Fla., said Trump's lengthy lawsuit had too much praise for the president and "superfluous allegations."
Merryday said Trump's two civil allegations against the newspaper are only mentioned in the last few pages of the 85-page complaint. The other pages are full of complaints about his political enemies and boasting of his accomplishments.
Merryday gave Trump 28 days to file another version of the lawsuit.
