Will the porn star’s lawyer Michael Avenatti be slapped with a “Gag Order”? Not likely!
July 29, 2018Judge: Gag order unlikely against porn star’s lawyer
LOS ANGELES (AP) — A federal judge said Friday he is unlikely to issue a gag order stopping a lawyer for porn actress Stormy Daniels from discussing her lawsuit against President Donald Trump with reporters and the public.
U.S. District Judge S. James Otero made the comment
during a hearing held a day after the attorney, Michael Avenatti, said he now represents three additional women who had relationships with Trump and were paid “hush money” before the 2016 presidential election.
Otero did not immediately issue a decision on the gag order requested on behalf of Michael Cohen, a longtime personal lawyer for Trump. The motion said Avenatti had been running a “smear campaign” against Cohen.
