court orders trump to pay daniels' attorney's fees

In his decision this week, Judge Robert Broadbelt III ruled that Clifford was entitled to legal fees, finding her the "prevailing party" under California law, despite the case having been dismissed.

Broadbelt also rejected an argument by Trump's attorneys that the President was not liable for the fees because he had not signed the NDA.

In his decision, Broadbelt wrote that since Trump had reimbursed Cohen for the $130,000 payment to Clifford, and since the Trump legal team had earlier argued that a defamation suit filed against the President by Clifford should be handled by an arbitrator per the NDA, the President was effectively a party to the agreement.

Be positive. A $40,000 contribution to this particular prostitute has at least reduced the court cases against Trump and his firm from 63 to 62.

From 63 to 62? As Doctor Coronager would say, "wow, that's almost half!"

Instead of taking it as a business expense this time, maybe he should take it out of Melania's allowance.

Maybe the board Trumpettes can tell him and us what would be the best way to pretend it's not happening.

How many cases can trump have before the SC at one time. He take every loss all the way to the top.

I just can't comprehend some $40,000 Dollar pussy.

 

[HisArpy]

Trump's attorneys will appeal and the ruling with be reversed because, under California law, there is no "prevailing party" when a matter is dismissed.

 

[surdeep]

He should get his hush money back.

And now let's hear a trio by unread Trumpettes.

Oh lookie, he thinks he's smart...

I know a bear that's cleverer than you are. Thor probably knows more than one but I don't live in the cold frozen land of eternal night and the bears around here aren't so readily available to me for evaluation.

Although I think that most bears know how to eat bugs like you so the likelyhood that almost all bears are smarter than you are rises in probability.

How about $170,000 pussy? And that doesn't include the prenup redo that Melania squeezed out of him.

It appears that Stormy is still cheaper than Melania and he may have a better shot of getting laid with Stormy than Melania these days.

If you’re in the middle of buying the Presidency, that shit’s chump change.

I think Stormy screwed him more than once, so she's probably wised up by now. Maybe he can hire her to spank his ass.

I personally think NDAs should be abolished. Courts are public and anything that goes through them should be public. That alone may reduce frivolous cases.

Settlement agreements are often included in the court file if there's something the court needs to have "continuing jurisdiction" over.

Often it's that the terms of the settlement requiring one party to make payments on the agreed upon settlement amount. Until that's paid in full, the court will have jurisdiction to reopen the litigation.

In such a case, the settlement agreement includes a clause where neither party admits guilt or fault and the settlement is being made to reduce the costs of litigation for the parties.

It's public, it's there in the file, and it means nothing.

His puppet master Putin don't seem to have these problems...just pointing out the obvious

 

[Conager]

Would that be the Putin that Obama said, "Tell him I'll have more flexibility after the elrction?" The Putin of the "Russian reset?" That Putin?

We've already heard from a Quintet of Dummies & the Trio doesn't suffer from TDS.

And now let's hear a trio by unread Trumpettes.

9% of males are homosexual or lean that way, so do the math for 45 Presidents.

Settlement agreements are ...

... not the subject of my post. NDAs, Non Disclosure Agreements .... the kind you get in trouble for talking about. The kind that yield pay-offs.


Everything that goes through the courts needs to be public. Possible exceptions, youth adoption cases, witness or victim protection records.

NDA's never get to court files because the person subject to the NDA cannot comment on them except to say that they cannot comment.

I think what you want is to make NDA's illegal just so you can dig around to find dirt on those you don't like.

The problem is that NDA's serve a purpose and as a legally binding contract, your desire to pierce them violates that purpose and intrudes into the contractual agreement of other persons without need or lawful support.
