Porn star Stormy Daniels asked a federal judge to drastically reduce President Donald Trump's demand for nearly $350,000 in attorney's fees in her recently dismissed defamation suit.
Daniels' lawyer, Michael Avenatti, argued that the $341,559.50 requested for an alleged 509.25 hours of attorney time is a "staggering and grossly inflated sum."
The proper figure is closer to $25,000, Avenatti said in the court filing Monday in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles.

Play slanderous games, win slanderous prizes, baby .. lol !
This part from “Casino” applies to Trump in a fight of whatever kind...Political, legal, war of words, etc.
No matter how big a guy might be, Nicky would take him on. You beat Nicky with fists, he comes back with a bat. You beat him with a knife, he comes back with a gun. And if you beat him with a gun, you better kill him, because he’ll keep comin’ back and back until one of you is dead.
He doesn’t shy away from a fight.
$25,000?
Avenatti is delusional.
Hahahaha. President Trump should be awarded triple damages.
#MAGA!
I predict she’ll open a Go Fund Me page or one of Soros’ third-party groups will pay her.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You meant a Go__________Me fund.
Boo.Hoo. You should have been satisfied with your first shake-down take, you trollop.
Too bad. She can always get the money by peddling her ass.
She’ ll pay it in quarters.
Maybe she should offer her services in kind to Trump...eeyuuu!
Trump hires the best, unlike Stormy’s 2 bit porn lawyer.
Come on Stormy! You could pay for that laying down!
Now suck it up girl!
Well, she wouldn’t have a book to sell without her attacks upon the president. He should get part of the money. He deserves his cut from all book sales.
$25k is lunch and parking validation to these guys.
Avenatti thinks Trump’s lawyers work for under $50 an hour? He (Avenatti) is even crazier (or more desperate?) than we thought!
OTOH, $670.71 an hour is gettin’ up there.
Maybe Trump should ask for “emotional damages”. Hahaha!
A run of the mill estate lawyer is around $250 an hour. Criminal or business on up there around $500, and that is the economical ones.
Laughable. Lawyers like Trump's likely bill at $1000/hr or more. For $25K they might fix a traffic ticket for you...
looks she’s going to have to ..uhh.. “entertain” a few hundred “clients” to come up with that scratch.
Where is her boy Avenatti?
$25,000 for 509 hours is about $49 an hour. No lawyer in this country works that cheaply. What a joke!
She hired a cheapskate, Trumps lawyers aren’t cheap.
