FILE - Michael Avenatti makes a statement to the press as he leaves federal court in New York, July 23, 2019. A federal appeals court on Wednesday, Aug. 30, 2023, upheld Avenatti's conviction for plotting to extort up to $25-million from shoe giant Nike – one of several legal messes that have landed him behind bars.
In the Nike case, Avenatti was sentenced to 2½ years in prison and ordered to pay $260,000 in restitution. Avenatti, 52, is incarcerated at a federal prison near Los Angeles, where he lived and practiced law. His law license is suspended and he is scheduled to be released from prison in 2036. Avenatti told Nike officials that they could either pay him and Geragos $15 million to $25 million to investigate the allegations, or pay him more than $22 million for his silence, prosecutors said.
