Stormy Daniels Must Pay More to Trump’s Lawyers, Court Says
Stormy Daniels is ordered to pay legal fees to Trump's lawyers by the US Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit, in addition to past costs, while Trump pleads not guilty to criminal charges in New York.
- US Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit orders Stormy Daniels to pay almost $122,000 in legal fees to Trump's attorneys.
- The sum is in addition to the over $538,000 already ordered to be paid for past cases.
- The California case is unrelated to Trump's current indictment in New York, but both involve Daniels' claim of an affair with Trump.
- Trump pleads not guilty to criminal charges in Manhattan state court relating to falsifying business records to influence the election.
- Prosecutors say Daniels may be a witness in the case.
