Update: Michael Cohen's lawyer has filed a notice that he is removing Stormy Daniels' new lawsuit to federal court. (This means it likely will be heard in federal court, instead of Calif. state court, where it was filed.)https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/4498013-Clifford-v-Davidson-Cohen-Notice-of-Removal.html …

As noted — https://twitter.com/ThumperNYC/status/1004785894740676610 … — removal based on diversity of parties (from diff states) isn't available if any defendant is from the state where the suit was brought (Calif). It looks like Cohen's lawyer is hinging the removal on the fact Davidson hasn't yet been served.pic.twitter.com/VT7HyU52SI

(Cohen's lawyer removed to C.D. Cal.) —> "The minority view is to look past the plain language of the statute and decline to permit removal prior to service. See, e.g., Standing v. Watson Pharms., Inc., 2009 WL 842211 (C.D. Cal. 2009)"https://twitter.com/PeterStris/status/1004794931578204160 …

The text messages we've already seen so far are incredibly damning for both Cohen and Davidson.

I don’t know if Cohen did anything wrong. But Richardson on the other hand? Yeah, he needs to be disbarred.

Why if he is representing her in a lawsuit is he betraying her my releasing potential evidence to the public. Therefore giving the other side a massive advantage. Oh ya, he is not really representing her. Duh...

I'm old enough to remember when they were boasting that they'd be using Stormy's money to pay for their vacations.
