Michael Avenatti, the man dubbed by Tucker Carlson as the “creepy porn lawyer” aka “CPL”, is back under the legal spotlight. The lawyer fired by Stormy Daniels is in legal boiling water yet again.

The Southern District of New York is set to charge Avenatti with trying to extort $15 million to $25 million from Nike, SDNY officials said Monday.

Michael Avenatti had tweeted about a press conference regarding a college basketball scandal that implicated the biggest names in the sport. The press conference was scheduled for Tuesday, March 26th, 2019 at 11am EST.

“Tmrw at 11 am ET, we will be holding a press conference to disclose a major high school/college basketball scandal perpetrated by @Nike (https://twitter.com/Nike) that we have uncovered. This criminal conduct reaches the highest levels of Nike and involves some of the biggest names in college basketball,” Avenatti’s tweet read.

According to the complaint filed in federal court, Avenatti told Nike attorneys by phone last week if his demands were not met, "I'll go take ten billion dollars off your client's market cap ... I'm not f*cking around."

The complaint alleges Avenatti said he'd refrain from holding a press conference, if Nike paid his client $1.5 million & agreed to "retain" him to conduct an "internal investigation," for which he and a co-conspirator would be paid "at a minimum, between $15 and $25 million."

The election of a man using 9 year olds vocabulary makes perfect sense then... And the regression of the lawyer who failed to frame the man, for his legitimate dealings with a porn star, to try and extort the makers of the shoes of the ball players. He really just wants to be as succesful as a ball coach, nothing wrong with that.

I predict Avenatti will be given the Democrat Smollett treatment and be fully exonerated.

Or perhaps Trump will be a good sport and pardon him for being a good actor...

Feds seize $4.5 million Avenatti plane amid tax scandal

LOS ANGELES – Embattled lawyer Michael Avenatti (https://www.foxnews.com/category/person/michael-avenatti) was the subject of a federal warrant Wednesday that resulted in the seizure of his private jet, worth about $4.5 million.
A U.S. Attorney’s Office spokesman, Thom Mrozek, confirmed to Fox News that federal agents seized a Honda HA-420 twin-engine jet from Santa Barbara Airport about 10 a.m. after a federal judge issued a warrant.

The plane was originally scheduled to be flown Wednesday to Orange County on Avenatti's behalf, but pilots had to file a new flight plan to San Bernardino County.

“Federal authorities have seized a jet co-owned by Mr. Avenatti pursuant to a seizure warrant issued by a federal judge. This seizure is related to the pending criminal case in Los Angeles,” a federal official told Fox News.

Avenatti told Fox News on Wednesday: “I haven’t used the plane in almost a year and I gave up my interest last year. I have no interest in the plane and could care less.” Fox News reached out to Avenatti's lawyer but received no response.

MICHAEL AVENATTI LIVED LUXURY LIFE WHILE AVOIDING PAYING TAXES FOR A DECADE, SAYS FEDERAL TAX AUTHORITIES (https://www.foxnews.com/us/michael-avenatti-lived-luxury-life-while-avoiding-paying-taxes-for-a-decade-says-federal-tax-authorities)

The six-seat business jet was flown by a private contract pilot to Chino Municipal Airport, where it is being held by Threshold Aviation.

Federal court records indicated that the plane, bought on Jan. 30, 2017, was registered to Passport 420, a company co-owned by Avenatti. A government complaint obtained by Fox News said Avenatti’s wife, Lisa-Storie Avenatti, said he owned two private jets -- one through Avenatti & Associates and the other through Passport 420 -- and that each had a value of $4.5 million.

But, Avenatti disputed this, telling Fox News: “I have never owned two planes either directly or indirectly and any claim to the contrary is complete nonsense.”

The warrant under which the plane was seized was under seal; Avenatti was accused last month of failing to pay income taxes for almost a decade despite making $18 million since 2010. Officials are also looking at his firm, which is said to have recorded $38 million in deposits but filed no tax returns.

MICHAEL AVENATTI’S LATEST ACCUSATIONS OF EXTORTING NIKE MARK END OF HIS SHOT AT REDEMPTION AFTER SPECTACULAR FALL FROM GRACE (https://www.foxnews.com/us/michael-avenattis-latest-accusations-of-extorting-nike-mark-end-of-his-shot-at-redemption-after-spectacular-fall-from-grace)
Prosecutors did not disclose if the jet was seized to satisfy a judgment, or in connection with nonpayment of taxes.

Avenatti, who previously represented adult-film star Stormy Daniels in litigation against President Trump, has also been charged with wire and bank fraud in California. And federal prosecutors in New York accused the lawyer of attempting to extort about $25 million from Nike (https://www.foxnews.com/us/michael-avenatti-nervous-scared-about-prospect-of-prison-time-labels-nike-extortion-allegations-absurd) “by threatening to use his ability to garner publicity to inflict substantial financial and reputational harm on the company if his demands were not met.”

Avenatti made a name for himself after representing Daniels when she sued Trump in March 2018, claiming that Trump paid her hush money ahead of the 2016 election over an alleged 2006 tryst.

The president has repeatedly denied her story.

After repeated social media attacks on Trump and his former attorney Michael Cohen, Avenatti hinted that he would consider a run for the 2020 presidential election on the Democratic ticket.

Avenatti has since put to rest rumors of a bid for the White House and has ended his contract with Daniels (https://www.foxnews.com/politics/michael-avenatti-cuts-ties-with-stormy-daniels).
