NEW YORK - Michael Avenatti shot to fame from obscurity two years ago by taking to the airwaves as an outspoken, self-described nemesis of Donald Trump while representing adult film actress Stormy Daniels in lawsuits against the U.S. president.
Nike has denied Avenatti's claims of corruption, and prosecutors want to block him from politicizing the trial. Lawyers are for the most part"not the most sympathetic defendants," said Thaddeus Hoffmeister, a law professor at Ohio's University of Dayton and jury consultant. According to prosecutors, Avenatti also defrauded Franklin by concealing a settlement offer from Nike.
Daniels received hush money before the 2016 presidential election so she would not reveal her alleged sexual encounter with Trump, who denies it happened.His fame worked against him when he was thrown into solitary confinement at Manhattan's Metropolitan Correctional Center, following his Jan. 14 arrest for allegedly violating bail in the California case.
