I am a practicing attorney in LA and DC. Former NBC News Legal Analyst, Tweets are my own opinions, not as prior Special Counsel for the Girardi Keese BK case.
Only in Los Angeles, do you have to drive from Beverly Hills to the Valley to go swimming in July. 😂😂🤣


🚨🚨Judge in Ghislane Maxwell case, Epstein's girlfriend, casts doubt on release of grand jury transcripts. Finds the governments motion insufficient. As I have repeatedly said, release the FBI 302's, those are the investigative reports. Grand jury testimony is supposed to be…




🕵️🕵️Erika Girardi finally publicly admits Jim Wilkes opened a bank account for her in Florida and is giving her money. Why? She states in a formal response in court in a Florida case the below quote. Why is Jim Wilkes giving her money and where is he getting it from? ¨To the…


I tried to research this one to see if he can do this, but I can’t really see a way. Besides the comedic value, I don’t see a legal pathway for the president to revoke US citizenship because he doesn’t like her. Maybe the easiest solution is if Rosie O’Donnell just surrenders…



🚨🚨🚨E. Jean Carroll’s defamation judgment is affirmed. Since Trump posted a bond she gets paid quickly. Big day for her for sure. For Trump, small adjustment on his balance sheet.


🚨🚨Great order for Sean Combs. The judge wants briefing on sentences that only are for the Mann Act or transportation of prostitution cases. This is a good sign for Sean Combs team the court is not considering the conduct on the charges that were acquitted. I can tell you…

Erika Girardi / Tom Girardi divorce. The family law judge has finally had enough and told her either get divorced or dismiss your case. Just another odd twist that she files for divorce to show contrived outrage but then never does anything for five years! The mystery of who…


Sean Combs bail update: Denied. Defendant could not meet his burden to show any reason why the Court should change its prior bail ruling. The guidelines show more time than that for the convicted offenses. The defendant has only served ten months so the Court wants to wait…

Another twist, the woman who was paid $30,000,000 total, $20,000,000 from Combs and $10,000,000 from the International Continental Hotel, is opposing his release on bail. Nothing surprises me at this point. See her papers below. Very rare for a witness to weigh in through…

Sean Combs post-trial bail package: The defense proposes the following bail package: a. A $1,000,000 bond; b. Co-signed by Sean Combs, his mother, his sister, and the mother of his oldest daughter; c. Mr. Combs’s travel will be restricted to the Southern District of Florida,…

Partial acquittal Combs: Typical Range is 24 to 51 months depending on enhancements. The transportation for prostitution charge convictions are far less serious than sex trafficking. Since the offer was much higher this was a win not withstanding the years of civil suits and…



What is going on at the Los Angeles County Sheriffs Department. @LASDHQ Not very reassuring.
