The New York Daily News reports that lawyer jackass Michael Avenatti is broke, unable to pay his attorneys and will likely require a public defender to fight allegations he stole money from faded porn star Stormy Daniels, according to court filings revealed Monday.
An attorney for Avenatti said in an affidavit filed in Manhattan Federal Court that “we have no expectation of any compensation in this case.”
“We anticipate that Mr. Avenatti will shortly request that the Court appoint the Federal Defenders of New York to represent him,” the attorney, Thomas Warren, said, seeking permission to be taken off of the case.
Broke … no bread … I mean, like, nothin’
Avenatti’s defense team handling different charges in Los Angeles made a similar request last week, writing that he had “run out of funds.”
Avenatti’s trial in Manhattan for allegedly stealing nearly $300,000 from a book deal for his client, Daniels, is scheduled for October. It has been delayed due to the coronavirus pandemic.
He was found guilty in February of separate charges involving a plot to extort Nike of more than $20 million.
Avenatti represented faded porn star Stormy Daniels in a lawsuit seeking to break a confidentiality agreement so she could speak about her alleged affair with Donald Trump before he ran for president.
While representing Daniels, Avenatti appeared dozens of times on cable news programs and even flirted with a presidential run.
Earlier this month, Avenatti’s attorney revealed that the felonious former lawyer in indigent and can no longer afford his legal counsel ahead of his criminal trials set to take place later this year.

Good! Now Avenatti will get shitty pubic defense attorneys that won’t file his appeals, will make sure he is convicted and won’t fight for a light sentence. He will now be treated like the scum he is and, ironically, won’t even get his ass defended from pubic “bubba justice”. Avenatti will probably get “shafted” by bubba gang member shivs as well, hopefully they just about kill him in the process but he survives to be shivved again and again. Maybe a fan of Stormy will even do the shivving for free as a show of loyalty to her and the adult film industry. Avenatti will hopefully spend a lot of time on Con Air in cuffs, belly chain and shackles being given “diesel therapy” being moved from one maximum security prison to another every week to supposedly “protect him” from “bubba justice”. Since he won’t have time to make “friends” that way that should actually expose him to more “bubba justice”. Hopefully he also gets COVID-19 numerous times in prison as well.
Maybe he shoulda hit Stormy up for a loan?
Then again he probably already tried that and she told him to “Fuck Off”.
I agree that Stormy won’t be loaning Shyster Avenatti anything but a bucket of her shit — after she has a case of diarrhea. His fellow inmates will loan him a bar of soap or a packet of Top Ramen — at 200% interest (he will have to pay back three bars of soap or three packets of Top Ramen after the next commissary date or get kicked in the teeth and balls). I hope Avenatti gets kicked in the balls a lot in prison. He ripped Stormy out of $450K from what I have heard and half of his 50 cents an hour working as the prison janitor won’t ever pay her back (his court costs and fines will be paid in full first before Stormy sees a dime from his worthless should be executed ass). Child support also comes before paying back his victims, meaning he will probably never pay Stormy a dime. Avenatti’s former “slave” can also forget about alimony — he will never pay a dime of that, either.
