Sounds like CBS is worried about having their license pulled.
Her problem and CBSâ is or will become the rapidly diminishing market value of the story. Everyone already knows she balled the POTUS. Everyone already knows the POTUS is a pig who brags about the hot chick he boned last weekend.
Iâm finding it hard to conceive who would pay her to talk or why, at this point. The only solution is impeachment and Rumpublicans are busy at work making excuses why not tot do that.
OK so the package is as the hands would suggest. Or maybe the guy was into toilet play. Ha ha but how is that worth enough money to anybody to even afford the new lawyer?
To answer my own question, I think the real money may be in not blowing the lid off this whole Hollywood sextortion racket. It seems like the full time sex workersâ lawyer knows all the indiscreet celebritiesâ attorneys and more or less has a boilerplate payout for low six figures, basically pre arranged to make sure everyoneâs dirt remains under the rug. Itâs a pretty sweet deal for the multimillionaires and not so much for their playthings.
I suspect Daniels agreement with 60 Minutes makes sure this does not get aired until a court rules on the contract. Right now per the contract she would be liable for $1 mil for each breach. That could add up. While a court might not uphold that, itâs a chance I am sure her and her lawyer wonât take (but they are smart not to say that). Even only 1 count being upheld is a lot of money.
They obviously want Trump to challenge this, but if Trump does not it would not surprise me if Daniels attorney goes through the legal process of voiding the agreement, and I think he might be successful. But the right move for now is to wait for Trump to make the move.
Bottom line it seems is that allowing this to air and taking a chance on the agreement being void is very risky. Big risk, big liability. Best to get the agreement void, then hit the airwaves. No risk, but money.
If she has texts, photos and videosâŚthat will always be a hot story. In fact, a waiting period will make it even hotter.
If Stormy has a pic showing her holding up Trumpâs severed head, will Anderson giver her the Kathy Griffin treatment and throw Stormy under the bus?
I cannot for the life of me understand why all the talking lawyer heads are saying she is the one with the uphill legal battle.
Perhaps they should spend more time in a courtroom and less time on TV.
The argument against her is that she accepted the money.
What I would like to see her do is breach any contract and have them try to enforce the contract â specifically the liquidated damages clause. I think that it is unenforceable, at least in California.
Exactly.
Itâs a three party contract, where all of of the duties are owed by or to a party who didnât actually enter into the agreement and where all of the remedies, other than rescission, belong to the missing party. And all of those duties owed by and to the missing party are expressly deemed material. It is impossible for this contract to be a contract without the mysterious Mr. DDâs signature. So either there is some entirely other parol contract just between Stormy and the LLC whose terms are to be inferred from their conduct or else there is no contract and the LLC and Stormy are entitled to restitution of their consideration.
Complicating the analysis further is that the document also purports to contain a copyright assignments. Copyright assignments must be memorialized in a writing signed by the assignor. 17 USC s. 204. However, if the writing that does the assigning is invalid due to failure of consideration, lack of meeting of minds or illusory consideration, it canât memorialize a transfer of copyrights to a third-party who, by the agreementâs terms, was supposed to be a party to the transaction giving consideration.
Whether all of these arguments work in an arbitration is a crap shoot, because arbitrators often seem to feel like the law is just a lot of advisory guidelines. In court, though, theyâve got a problem. Starting with the arbitration clause.

Does CBS stand for Candy-ass Broadcasting System?
