Former celebrity lawyer Michael Avenatti, who rose to fame representing adult-film actress Stormy Daniels in her litigation against former President Donald Trump, was sentenced in Orange County to 14 years in federal prison for tax and wire fraud.
Avenatti, 51, was sentenced Monday for "defrauding his clients and for obstructing IRS efforts to collect payroll taxes from his coffee business," the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Central District of California said on Twitter. He was ordered to pay nearly $11 million in restitution to four clients and the Internal Revenue Service after pleading guilty in June to four counts of wire fraud and one count of tax fraud.
