LOS ANGELES — The Justice Department says Stormy Daniels’ lawyer, Michael Avenatti, made “misrepresentations” in a bankruptcy case involving his former law firm that owes more than $440,000 in unpaid federal taxes.

Court documents show some of the money was paid, but attorneys for the government said in May that the firm still owed a portion of the unpaid tax money.

On Tuesday, the U.S. attorney’s office in Los Angeles filed a motion asking a federal judge to compel the payment of $440,291 in unpaid taxes and more than $11,700 in interest.

I wonder if Stormy was his last shot at “don’t cry your way out, buy your way out.”

The Evil Hand of Trump reaches out for this innocent lawyer trying to do his job of representing the downtrodden and repressed.

Any bets how Stormy paid this scumbag?

Just another ambulance-chasing Democrat shister. Johnny Cochran would be proud.

I think Avenatti needs to call Optima Tax Relief.
