Michael Avenatti Releases Cohen Emails Showing Stormy Daniels's Ex-Lawyer Shared Questions With Trump attorney

Quote: | Calling the communications "inappropriate and highly prejudicial," attorney Michael Avenatti released emails that showed the previous attorney representing adult film star Stormy Daniels sent questions he received from a reporter to Trump Organization lawyer Michael Cohen.
California attorney Keith Davidson represented Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, in the confidentiality contract she signed for $130,000 in October 2016. The agreement, which Avenatti and Daniels are seeking to nullify, stipulated that the adult film star stay silent about an alleged affair she had with President Donald Trump in 2006.
"Why were Mr. Cohen and Mr. Davidson communicating in this fashion earlier this year? It was entirely inappropriate and prejudicial to my client," Avenatti commented on the documents, which he released Friday. "If Mr. Cohen had nothing to hide, then why go to these efforts to cover it up?"

The documents appear to show that Davidson forwarded questions sent by the Associated Press and CNN to Cohen in January 2018, tipping him off on what news outlets were in the process of reporting. "FYI," Davidson emailed Cohen, attaching the CNN questions about Cohen's payment to Daniels possibly violating campaign finance laws—something the Trump and his surrogates have repeatedly denied.

more bad news for trump-cohen of the 300,000 items viewed only 162 were considered attorney-client privilege that does not even make it close to 1 percent.
and of course yesterday they went to court to revoke manaforts bail for trying to change witness testimony via encrypted messages... From what I listened to, one of the simplest witness tampering cases to prove ever.

Stormy Daniels: Michael Cohen plotted with my lawyer to push lies
Quote: |
A new lawsuit filed by Stormy Daniels’ lawyer Michael Avenatti alleges that Stormy Daniels’ former lawyer Keith Davidson was a “puppet” for Trump and Michael Cohen and worked against her interests. Leaked text messages show Michael Cohen and Keith Davidson discussing a potential appearance for Stormy Daniels on Sean Hannity’s show and could suggest that both Trump and Melania were in the loop on an alleged plan to undermine her. |

Judge denies President's request to confidentially contest seized Cohen documents
Quote: | NEW YORK, NY - MAY 30: Michael Cohen, (L) former personal lawyer and confidante for President Donald Trump, exits the United States District Court Southern District of New York on May 30, 2018 in New York City. According to a filing submitted to the court Tuesday night by special master Barbara Jones, federal prosecutors investigating Michael Cohen, a longtime personal lawyer and confidante for President Donald Trump, are set to receive 1 million files from three of his cellphones that were seized last month.

As attorneys for Michael Cohen rush to meet Judge Kimba Wood’s Friday deadline to complete a privilege review of over 3.7 million documents seized in the April 9 raids of Cohen’s New York properties and law office, a source representing this matter has disclosed to ABC News that the law firm handling the case for Cohen is not expected to represent him going forward.
To date, Cohen has been represented by Stephen Ryan and Todd Harrison of the Washington and New York firm, McDermott, Will & Emery LLP.
No replacement counsel has been identified as of this time.
Cohen, now with no legal representation, is likely to cooperate with federal prosecutors in New York, sources said. This development, which is believed to be imminent, will likely hit the White House, family members, staffers and counsels hard...
Judge Wood subsequently appointed former federal judge Barbara Jones to act as a “special master” to conduct an impartial review of the materials and to referee any disputes between Cohen and the government. Trump and the Trump Organization intervened in the case and were also granted access to review the materials for potentially privileged items.
Jones reported last week that of the first 300,000 items reviewed, she had determined that just 162 of them were covered by attorney-client privilege. She rejected three items that Cohen, Trump or the Trump organization had designated as privileged.
Judge Wood has given Cohen’s attorneys until Friday to complete the review of the remaining documents. Any remaining items to be reviewed would be turned over to a team of federal prosecutors unconnected to the case to complete the examination of the documents.

Cohen will be indicted—in State court. He is a punk and will roll on Trump. Winter is nearly here. |
