Stormy's Lawyer has a Storm Of His Own

The lawyer for Stormy Daniels who has been all over the TV for weeks got hit today with a ten million dollar judgment in bankruptcy court in Los Angeles.  It seems that his law firm (of which he is the principal partner) settled a claim by a lawyer who used to work at the firm for cheating that attorney out of the fees he had earned.  The settlement required a payment by Stormy's lawyer of two million dollars, a payment he failed to make.  The judge then awarded the entire amount as due now and entered judgment against both the firm and Stormy's lawyer.

There's also news from the same court that Stormy's lawyer is in arrears to the IRS for something like half a million buck owed for payroll taxes his firm collected but never gave to the government.

One thing is certain, we can now understand the air of desperation that Stormy's lawyer always seemed to have in his interviews.  Nothing could ever happen fast enough for him.  No wonder; he was trying to come up with some sort of way to raise all that money to pay both the IRS and the other lawyer cheated out of his fees.

Here's the article that sets for the whole story.
