ht/ fdr in hell
hard to do, but … Michael Avenatti is actually a lower life-form than Slip-&-Fall lawyers
Naked model.
Adjective or modifier?
Great work there, Mr. BFH.
Will the judge allow spectators in the courtroom?
Don’t ALL lawyers believe they will prevail???
The court order, linked in the DC piece, is a great read, if you happen to read such things for a living. Which I have been doing for more than four decades, in California. Basically the judge smacked Aventti and his lawyers up one side and down the other.
There is reference to a Code of Civil Procedure Section 107.6 motion
Aventti’s lawyers filed a 107.6 motion, in effect saying Judge Kwan, the original assigned judge, would not be impartial or fair. The motion was granted, because, by code it had to be granted since air was the first thing they filed with the court. Bad move, by them, disrespecting the judicial system that way.
They got a new judge, of course, but the new judge slammed Aventti and his lawyers. They wanted everything in the court file to be sealed, made non-public. The judge said no, then laid out a bunch of what they wanted to hide. Trashed the lawyers. I love it when a courts beat up sleazeoid attorneys.
Nekked. So she’s suing his pants off.
FTA: Avenatti claimed credit for the story shortly after its publication in the Journal, and expressed regret that he had not received the attribution he believed he was owed.
Ask and ye shall receive, Avenaughty.
95% of the lawyers give the rest of ’em a bad name.
Avenatti ain’t a 5 percenter!
All I think of when I see this guy is a psycho rodent face beaver. Hope she wins $130k and donates to Trump 2020. Yes, “I Believe in Karma”, and always hated the Lovin’ Spoonful. Karma OK with, F’ magic. Too much like Hope and Change. Please do not let a re-release of that garbage song.
Oh man. How could I possibly eat anymore popcorn???
That guy put the sleaze in sleazy.
I’ve got to take a shower every time I read about that slime-crawler.
