Stormy Daniels blasts Trump's 'staggering' request for nearly $350,000 in legal fees
cnbc ^ | November 6, 2018 | Kevin Breuninger

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.

Stormy made Trump pay $130,000 for 10 minutes of her time.

She has no right to squawk about high hourly fees.

If you don’t get that advice, that attorney should be disbarred. Michael Avenatti is a joke of a bad lawyer.

He should also be disbarred for advancing the Swetnick fraud. The problem is that he is a California lawyer and I don't have a lot of confidence that the California State Bar would do the right thing in light of his exalted status as a Trump-attacking lib.

True. Both probably figure “Men are such useless jerks but if I can use them and turn a few bucks off them, what the hell.”

Now comes the tragedy where she outlives her usefulness and ends up in a hotel room broke and a prostitute. Wait, that’s already happened.
