Maybe he should be less concerned about ambulance chasing and pretending to be a 2020 candidate and pay more attention to all the legal judgments piling up against him.
Via Daily Caller:
A judge in California ruled that Michael Avenatti may be liable for damages after he allegedly revealed the existence of a hush agreement between Elliott Broidy, the prominent Republican financier, and his mistress, Playboy playmate Shera Béchard.
Judge Elizabeth Allen White of the Los Angeles Superior Court will allow Béchard’s lawyers to argue Avenatti effectively destroyed their agreement by revealing confidential information about the contract, which he allegedly extracted from Béchard’s former attorneys.
The case was occasioned when Béchard became pregnant with Broidy’s child during the course of their affair. She retained an attorney, Keith Davidson, to represent her in executing a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) with Broidy. Béchard’s complaint alleges that Davidson enlisted Michael Cohen — an acquaintance with whom he had previously worked on NDAs — to approach Broidy and offer to represent him in his dealings with Béchard.
