Stormy Daniels ordered by Ninth Circuit Court to Pay Trump $121,972.56 for attorney fees
By
The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals on Tuesday ordered that Stormy Daniels pay an additional $121,972.56 to former President Donald Trump to cover legal fees stemming from her suit against him.
“The court awarded attorneys’ fees to appellee Donald J. Trump under the Texas Citizens Participation Act,” reads the order. “The court referred to the appellate commissioner the determination of an appropriate amount.” Trump had requested the exact amount the court awarded for 183.35 hours of work by Harder LLP and the Dhillon Law Group.
Trump’s son Eric announced the order via Twitter, saying “BREAKING!!! the 9th Circuit just awarded Trump $121,962.56 in attorney fees from Stormy Daniels. Order just released. This in addition to the roughly $500k she already owes him.”

9th Circuit Order
The Ninth Circuit has previously ordered that Daniels pay more than $530,000 to Trump stemming from the suit. The court, in separate determinations, ordered that Daniels pay Trump over $292,000 and $245,209.67 to cover Trump’s costs. Collectively, Daniels now owes Trump nearly $700,000.
The latest order comes the same day that Trump surrendered himself to New York authorities to face arraignment in connection with Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s case involving a 2016 payment that Trump’s then-personal attorney, Michael Cohen, paid to Daniels. He has pleaded not guilty to 34 counts.

The fact that Trump’s BAR Association crime syndicate members entered any “plea” much less one of “not guilty”, show’s they have no clue what the hell they’re doing.
You would think he could afford better counsel.
