webfact Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Trump attorney seeks to force porn star's lawsuit into arbitration FILE PHOTO: Adult-film actress Stephanie Clifford, also known as Stormy Daniels, poses for pictures at the end of her striptease show in Gossip Gentleman club in Long Island, New York, U.S., February 23, 2018. REUTERS/Eduardo Munoz (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump's personal lawyer asked a federal judge on Monday to force adult film star Stormy Daniels to use arbitration to settle a dispute over an agreement to keep quiet about a sexual encounter she says she had with Trump. Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, last month sued Michael Cohen, Trump's personal attorney, to be released from the non-disclosure agreement she signed in October 2016 in exchange for $130,000. The White House has denied that Trump had sex with Daniels. Cohen has said he paid Daniels out of his own pocket. In Monday's court filing in Los Angeles, Brent Blakely, Cohen's attorney, argued the agreement included a provision that any disputes over it be settled through arbitration, as opposed to open court. Federal law "dictates that this motion be granted, and that Clifford be compelled to arbitration, as she knowingly and voluntarily agreed to do," Blakely wrote. Daniels' attorney, Michael Avenatti, said the matter should be settled in open court. "We will vigorously oppose the just-filed motion by Mr. Trump and Mr. Cohen to have this case decided in a secret arbitration, in a private conference room, purposely hidden from the American public," Avenatti said in a statement. Last week, U.S. District Judge S. James Otero ruled that a request by Daniels to depose Trump and Cohen was premature because they had yet to formally request that she arbitrate her claims. [nL1N1RB1VE] Avenatti has argued that the non-disclosure agreement is invalid because Trump never signed it. But in Monday's filing Blakely responded that the language of the agreement did not specify that Trump, using the pseudonym David Dennison, needed to sign it for the agreement to be binding. Blakely also argued that Daniels accepted the $130,000 and did not dispute the agreement for 16 months even though Trump had not signed it. Daniels has said she and Trump had sex once in 2006 but that they kept in touch for a period of time. [nL1N1R70AD] A former Playboy model, Karen McDougal, has described having a 10-month affair with Trump starting the same year, which the White House has said Trump denies. Trump was married to his wife Melania at the time.

Popular Post Andaman Al Posted April 3, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted April 3, 2018 (edited) So now the man that has spent a lifetime in class actions and has been on stage at countless rallies calling various people liars and spreading conspiracy theories and tweeting so many lies and personal attacks you can lose count.....wants to do the Stormy case in private to stop any embarrassing information coming out in disclosure. But how have we got here? He denied there was any truth in the Stormy story and now wants to discuss it in private. If Stormy was lying, Trump would go all out to show that. He really is a SOB (Presidentially used term). Edited April 3, 2018 by Andaman Al 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, as predicted. The reality TV president doesn't want his dirty laundry being aired in public and his lawyers will use every trick possible to make sure it stays quiet. Avenatti is playing a fine game but in the end this case will probably never see the light of day. Funny how transparency is never a two way street. A cover up is fine as long as it benefits your own side. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobFord Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Sparky was a busy boy. During this tournament, Trump (who married Melania Trump about 18 months earlier, and whose son Barron had been born in March) allegedly propositioned or had sex with at least four women, three of them adult film actresses and the fourth a Playboy model. https://www.vox.com/2018/3/24/17151786/stormy-daniels-explained Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

watcharacters Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 (edited) The whole thing with Miss Daniels interests me. I especially wonder if Trump's gorgeous wife will end up having her fill of him. Melania surely is far less needy than Hillary was at the corresponding time. Malinia is certainly young enough and beautiful enough to write her own ticket for the future. Her divorce from POTUS would easily, I'd guess, be in the hundreds of millions USD. President Trump must surely feel uneasy about this whole thing. He should just confess to weakness of the sexual kind. If he dismisses it he makes the same serious mistake as Nixon in not destroying the tapes when he had the opportunity. If he continues to think he's above the law, he may have a big surprise and awakening in store for him.

She probably thought that at his age, he'd tone it down some....but she was wrong. I'm guessing that she'd divorce Trump right now if he wasn't POTUS. But they have a prenup, so she's limited as to what she can get. Melania should hire Stormy's lawyer to handle the divorce. That would be classic. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DUH! Anyway, he hides behind white house spokespeople to deny that he had the sex. There was an illegal payoff (violating campaign laws). If he's forced to appear in court and keeps his denial position then he's in trouble. Yeah he definitely had the sex. The sex is not the issue though. It's the after sex stuff. Of course, most common sense people understand that "trump" had the sex, but hilariously there are still pathetic "trump" supporters that actually believe that he didn't because that is "trump"'s position! A man that lies much more than any president in history and they actually believe everything he says. Amazing!

Not sure about the value of the prenup to Trump is Melania gets to use the publicity value of a divorce of a sitting president, especially if the divorce is contentious. My guess is that she will dump him in the future, possibly when he is no longer president, and is probably being offered substantial sums just to keep quiet for now. So much for prenup! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
