The porn star suing for the right to go public with details of her alleged affair with President Donald Trump got her case transferred to a new judge after claiming she couldn’t get a fair trial with the earlier one, court records show.
Stormy Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, argued in a March 9 filing that her case should be moved from the docket of Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Elizabeth Feffer, who is seeking a federal judgeship. Clifford feared that Trump’s influence in that process could impact the judge’s handling of the case, her lawyer Michael Avenatti said.
