Stormy Daniels scandal thread (1 Viewer)

I make no impression.  Avenatti is a lot better lawyer than I am.  The job is advocacy.  Not analysis.  He's an effective advocate.  Which is why he's a successful trial lawyer and I'm a law firm washout.

One can be a successful trial lawyer without being a #####.

I would prefer that our colleagues at the bar would conduct themselves with a bit more decorum.  I believe this reflects negatively on the profession.  His self-promotion, his aggrandizement of his ego creates misperceptions in the consumer as to what services they can expect us to provide and the manner in which we can be expected to provide them.  If we as a profession start acting like carnival barkers we can expect to get paid like them and to garner the same respect as they get. 

Hopefully the impressions this guy makes are off set by the impressions made by folks like you, Henry Ford, Big Bottom, ....

I totally disagree here.  He’s baiting Trump.  He’s using every tactic he can to get him to bite on something that will help his client. I love this guy, but I only do plaintiff’s civil litigation.

The LLC moves to compel arbitration; Trump joins the motion
Click to expand...
Just read the LLC's memo.  Solid considering the circumstances.  It relies a lot on very favorable case law and avoids the facts as much as possible.  In response, I think Avenatti will focus a lot on Section 8.6 of the NDA, which has language stating that the agreement is effective "when signed by all Parties."  The LLC's position requires one to read the NDA's description of the Parties - "EC and/or Trump" - to mean "or" instead of "and," even though there is no basis in the contract for choosing that reading and in fact there is more support for the "and" reading.  The LLC's argument is exactly what Schwartz said on TV the other night: the NDA gave Cohen (!!) the choice whether the agreement would be with EC or Trump, even though that is also contradicted by a lot of stuff in the NDA.

Here is the letter we sent to the Sec. of the Treasury requesting that he publicly release the Suspicious Activity Report (SAR) relating to the $130k hush payment. This report may show the money trail and disprove the claims of Mr. Cohen.

It's cool grandstanding.   The ACLU has been able to get SAR's with a public records request.  

He'd be entitled to a copy of the SAR in discovery, so this is all unnecessary.

For some bizarre reason Trump has far better Attorneys for this civil matter than his existential criminal investigation. 

Avenatti should file his response and get on with normal discovery like Fish indicates above.

He probably can't until they rule on the arbitration.  I'm just saying he'll eventually get it if he can show he needs it.

Trump says he did not know about the $130,000 payment to Stormy Daniels and is not sure where the money came from. "You'll have to ask Michael Cohen. Michael is my attorney. You'll have to ask Michael."

And David Schwartz has also apparently been yanked off the air. The wheels of justice grind slowly, but there will be a moment of truth in this eventually.

If Trump is stupid enough to talk to Mueller, he's going to commit a crime in about thirty seconds.

We very much look forward to testing the truthfulness of Mr. Trump's feigned lack of knowledge concerning the $130k payment as stated on Air Force One.

As history teaches us, it is one thing to deceive the press and quite another to do so under oath. #searchforthetruth #basta

Good (actually GREAT) things come to those who wait!!! The strength of our case just went up exponentially. You can't have an agreement when one party claims to know nothing about it.

Yeah, I don't know how the agreement survives Trump saying he never even saw the thing, much less agreed to it. He has responsibilities under the term of the NDA.

Anyone stupid enough to actually believe this, well...

I was lucky enough to come across this beautiful piece of property not to long ago.  I really don’t want to sell it as I’m super proud to own it but another opportunity has come up I just can’t pass on.  Please feel free to inspect said property and make me a fair market offer. Plenty of pics of the property on google.  Just search San Diego Coronado Bride.  It’s sunning and the pride of ownership is beyond compare.  

 
Yaknow if discovery hits Cohen better come up with those home loan papers or things are going to get weird. I wonder if Cohen has authority to freely dip into Trump Org reserves for er ‘special projects’ like this.

Seen a couple of articles that Cohen could be on the line for disbarment. Now that Trump has walked away from it, Cohen settled a matter regarding his client without his client's consent; failed to keep his client reasonably informed of matters relating to him; and advanced money for a client for a contemplated litigation, all prohibited by the New York ethics rules.

You work for the Donald, and he's going to burn you down eventually.

One of the exceptions to the A/C privilege is when the lawyer is sued or faces discipline, so this should test Cohen's previous claim that he'd "do anything" for Trump.

Yeah as soon as I saw that denial, the first thought I had was that Trump just screwed Cohen. Avanetti has been baiting Trump into saying something stupid, and this qualifies.  

Trump will be a disaster in a deposition.

There's a word for this.

 
Michael Avenatti‏ @MichaelAvenatti 1h1 hour ago

Expect a major announcement in the coming days regarding our efforts to identify the thug who threatened Ms. Clifford in Las Vegas in 2011 to “leave Trump alone” while making reference to her little girl. You can run but you can’t hide. #thugsearch #seriousconsequences #basta

 
It’d be great if they had good proof of her being threatened. I’m afraid it’s going be a he said she said deal and nothing will come of it.
