Once-prominent California attorney Michael Avenatti took over representation of himself Tuesday at his latest criminal trial, setting the stage for him to directly confront former client and porn star Stormy Daniels over her claims that he stole some of the money she was owed for her autobiography.
U.S. District Judge Jesse M. Furman granted Avenatti’s request atΒ his Manhattan trialΒ on wire fraud and aggravated identity theft charges after he cited a “breakdown” with his lawyers over trial strategy, particularly on how to question a former longtime office worker for Avenatti who was testifying at the trial by video. more here
He who represents himself has a fool for a client.
Avenetti still has 2 diehard fans: Joy Behar and Nancy Pelosi.
Occasionally you run into a attorney that’s stupid enough to go totally corrupt before they are elected to office. That’s this asshole.
I thought he was already in jail on a different charge.
He claims that he had an agreement to share proceeds from Daniels’ book, and that he (or his firm) loaned her thousands of dollars. In a legitimate business transaction, there would be a very clear paper trail to document both of those assertions. Seeing as how there is nothing legitimate about CPL, me more than thinks he’s a lying dog-faced horse’s ass.
Oh stormy, oh stormy, bring back that money way!
A felony conviction for extorting millions doesn’t get you disbarred?
Apparently, the Creepy Porn Lawyer has an incompetent Shyster for a client.
What entertainment! Avenatti in this thread and Smollet in the one just above. Avenatti. I predict that Avenatti will have a fool for a lawyer, a fool for a client, and prove himself to be an even bigger fool than I already thought he was. Mean while Juicy will most likely get 200 hrs of community service in some Shitcago bath house!
Pass the popcorn!!
