The lawyer of adult film star Stormy Daniels, who has been embroiled in a legal battle with President Trump over an alleged affair between the two, said there is more information and evidence in the case that hasn’t “come to light yet.”
“We have a lot of information, a lot of evidence, a lot of documents that haven’t come to light yet,” Michael Avenatti told MSNBC’s Ari Melber Monday evening. “Numerous pieces of evidence, numerous facts, and we’re not going to show our hand in the beginning weeks of any case. No good lawyer would do that. And we’re certainly not going to do it here.”
Trump’s personal lawyer Michael Cohen paid Daniels $130,000 in hush money so she would not discuss her alleged relationship with Trump. Daniels signed a nondisclosure agreement with the entity in 2016, but Daniels filed a lawsuit earlier this month claiming that it should be nullified because Trump didn’t sign it.
Cohen has accused Daniels of violating a nondisclosure agreement 20 times — and argues he should collect at least $20 million in damages as a result.
