WASHINGTON (CNN) -- A hearing date has been set for the lawsuit adult film actress Stormy Daniels filed against President Donald Trump and his lawyer Michael Cohen's company to dissolve their non-disclosure agreement.
The hearing has been set for July 12 at the Los Angeles County Superior Court.
Daniels, whose legal name is Stephanie Clifford, filed suit last week against the President. The lawsuit said Trump never signed a hush agreement to keep Daniels quiet late in the 2016 campaign about an alleged sexual encounter between the two before Trump was president.
The lawsuit said Cohen had signed it on Trump's behalf and therefore the agreement was void. Both Cohen and the White House have denied the allegations of an affair between Daniels and Trump.

Republicans should be ashamed of themselves, their low morals, and their Draft-Dodger-in-Chief, Dirty Donnie. All deplorable.

(14,950 posts)This will go from July into August. The press will be laser focused on it.
Sure, they will look away until then because the shit show will demand it. But they won't pass it up once it comes around.
And if they get to depose him and cohen before the trial, all sorts of goodies might come out.

(7,220 posts)That's actually the boring part, although I still love it because it smothers the funda-gelicals in uncomfortable, lurid hypocrisy.
It's the campaign finance violation that's important. Most people don't get that because they're obsessed with/terrified by sex.

That would be delicious to have on video.
MMM, mmm, good.
On edit, I'll answer my own question. I heard a news story with her lawyer, and he said discovery would be conducted. That means they will depose both cohen and trump, and they will ask for financial records between the two and various trump companies and campaign accounts.
Methinks they will just give in rather than go through discovery. But, who knows what they will do. I hope they just throw a tantrum and the court hands them their heads.
