Franz Beckenbauer considered resigning as 2006 World Cup organizing committee chief in connection with a mysterious payment, a lawyer told a Frankfurt regional court on Thursday during a tax evasion trial against former German football top officials. German Football Federation (DFB) lawyer Jan Olaf Leisner said Beckenbauer, who died in January, considered this move at one meeting because the matter "was getting too much for him." In the trial, former DFB presidents Wolfgang Niersbach and Theo Zwanziger, as well as ex-DFB secretary general Horst R Schmidt, are charged with tax evasion because t...

Swiss banks can transfer information on accounts and custody accounts of German customers to the German tax authorities, Germany's Supreme Court for Taxes and Customs said in a judgement published on Thursday.

The case was brought by taxpayers who felt that their right to informational self-determination was violated by the transfer of account balances in a Swiss bank account. Both a lower court in Cologne and the Supreme Court rejected this. The automatic exchange of information on ...

By Marie GIFFARD Madrid (AFP) - Un procès devrait bien avoir lieu dans "l'affaire du baiser forcé": le parquet, qui présente ses réquisitions à l'avance en Espagne, a réclamé mercredi deux ans et demi de prison contre l'ex-homme fort du football espagnol Luis Rubiales pour avoir embrassé Jenni Hermoso sans son consentement. Ce baiser sur la bouche de la numéro 10 espagnole devant les caméras du monde entier, quelques minutes après le triomphe de "la Roja" (l'équipe nationale) le 20 août à Sydney lors de la finale de la Coupe du Monde féminine, avait provoqué une vague d'indignation en Espagne ...

Washington (AFP) - The US Supreme Court on Tuesday appeared poised to reject restrictions imposed by a lower court on an abortion pill widely used in the United States to terminate pregnancies. Dozens of demonstrators gathered outside as the top court heard its first significant abortion case since the justices overturned the constitutional right to the procedure nearly two years ago. A majority on the conservative-dominated court appeared skeptical during 90 minutes of arguments about the legal standing of the anti-abortion groups and physicians who brought the case against the medication, mi...

New York (AFP) - The New York judge presiding over Donald Trump's trial for allegedly making pre-election hush money payments to a porn star slapped a partial gag order on the former president on Tuesday.

Washington (AFP) - Facing a total of 88 felony charges in four separate federal and state cases, Donald Trump is employing a simple tactic that has always served him well in the past -- running out the clock. The 77-year-old Republican presidential candidate has deployed an army of highly paid lawyers in New York, Washington, Georgia and Florida to push back his trial dates. The goal is clear: delaying court action beyond the November election when, if he recaptures the presidency, he could potentially have the federal charges against him dropped -- or even pardon himself.
