- A federal judge in Ohio on Thursday denied President Donald Trump access to funds adult film actress Stormy Daniels received in a legal settlement.
U.S. District Judge Michael Watson ruled that Trump cannot claim a portion of the $450,000 settlement to go toward attorney's fees in a separate case between Daniels, who was born Stephanie Clifford, and himself.

Clifford's former attorney Michael Avenatti also sought to claim a portion of the settlement for outstanding fees for his work representing Clifford in cases against Trump but withdrew his lien.
"Having concluded that neither Avenatti nor Trump currently have an enforceable interest in the settlement funds and that a stay to determine if they will in the future is not warranted, the court hereby directs the Clerk of court to release the funds ... to the plaintiff and her attorneys," Watson wrote.
