A court in California ordered President TrumpDonald John TrumpCEO of parent company National Enquirer steps out Biden that he would shut down US in the midst of pandemic when scientists said it was necessary. Warren is calling for board members of the Postal Service to fire DeJoy or MORE to pay $ 44,100 to Stephanie Clifford, the adult film actress known as Stormy Daniels, to cover her legal fees over her non-disclosure agreement.
California Superior Court Judge Robert Broadbelt’s order, which was filed Monday but posted online Friday by Clifford’s attorneys, contained a $ 130,000 (non-disclosure) agreement (NDA) with former attorney Michael CohenMichael Dean CohenCEO of parent company National Enquirer steps out Ethics panel dismisses Gaetz for tweet targeting Cohen Five takeaways on Bannon MORE charge in his capacity that Trump represents. Clifford and Cohen both say that from 2006 to 2007, Trump had an affair with the actress, claiming that the president denies it.
Clifford saw Trump initially in 2018 trying to get out of the deal, and Trump’s lawyers voted out of court not to oppose or enforce the NDA. Clifford’s suit was eventually dismissed, and her claims reigned supreme since the NDA was held irresponsible.
This week’s decision was the culmination of Clifford’s attempt to be reimbursed by Trump for the legal expenses related to the case.
Broadbelt ruled that Clifford was entitled to be reimbursed for the legal fees after she decided she was the “dominant party” under California law, even though the case was dismissed.
He also dismissed arguments from Trump’s lawyers that he was not responsible for covering the fees because he did not sign the NDA, and decided that because Trump had reimbursed Cohen for the $ 130,000 and since the legal had the president’s team claimed that a defamation suit from Clifford should have been handled by an NDA arbitrator, Trump was effectively a party to the deal.
