“Experts say that the curcio hearing was called because of the legal issues Avenatti and Geragos now have. The judge will want Bronfman to openly state in court that she will not try to put the federal case on hold on account of not having her counsel available.”

"Legal issues", that's being generous. Let's see, about 6 months ago he had a $10 million judgement against him for his myriad of tax problems (his problem is that he thinks he doesn't have to pay taxes like everybody else). Then he drew felony charges for beating the crap out of his girlfriend some Russian chick "aspiring actress" that was taking him for a ride. Now he's got bank fraud charges, tax fraud charges, and he's on tape trying to extort Nike for $20 million because he badly needs the money. Oh, and he was out spending a client's legal settlement money. Being a compulsive liar about his achievements is the least of this corndog's faults.

All of this screams substance abuse. Don't know if Mikey is into the liquor, the white powder, or what. Most people drink in college and some play around a little bit with something stronger (not condoning it but it's a fact). When most people graduate and get their first "real job", they leave that crap behind at college. I'd bet that Mikey took it with him and that monkey on his back is now the size of a small car. Like most functional junkies, he was functional for a good number of years but things started going south during the 2016 election cycle and the wheels are now coming off. Look at his brazen acts of bankruptcy fraud, that's cocaine confidence there. He's no stranger to open defiance of court orders, that's how he got a $10 million judgement against him in January. I've got no proof but looking at his behavior, I'd bet the house and lot that he's got a real substance abuse problem.
