          Cohen lawyers: "We have no reason to believe that Mr. Avenatti is in lawful possession of these bank records. If Mr. Avenatti wishes to be admitted pro hac vice before this Court, he should be required to explain to this Court how he came to possess and release this information."pic.twitter.com/9qsm7sAEh3

          Cohen's lawyers are taking aim at a section of the Avenatti report regarding ~$20,000 in transactions at Standard Chartered Bank that have, at least partially, been disputed. They do not question the validity of the ~$1.25 million from the four companies that have been the focus.pic.twitter.com/lJibdL6hjL

          Mr. Ryan’s submission on behalf of Mr. Cohen is baseless, improper and sanctionable. They fail to address, let alone contradict, 99% of the statements in what we released. Among other things, they effectively concede the receipt of the $500,000 from those with Russian ties.

          Replying to @NooglesNYC @realconnorlynch and

          A pro hac motion is a request to be allowed to practice in a court where you are not already admitted. You generally just need to show that you are in good standing in the jurisdictions where you are admitted. In my experience, granted as a matter of routine.

          Due to the fact that Avenatti provided a report of his findings and subsequently, his findings were confirmed by multiple sources, his attorney’s have an issue with his appearance.

          They have an issue with his appearance at court proceedings where the SDNY is investigating Cohen. Avenatti wanted to be able to appear because he believes that in the raid conducted, documents were obtained regarding communications between Stormy Daniels and her fmr. lawyer.

          Trump claimed he didn't know any Russians and his lawyer was taking money from Russians, AT&T, Novartis while acting like a guy who would lobby Trump for them; what as nameless entities? Two ends to every transaction. AT&T gave its info to Justice. Avenatti can get from each 1?
