A lawsuit by former Playboy model Shera Bechard against top Republican fundraiser Elliott Broidy will remain under seal for now.

A California state judge in Los Angeles on Tuesday denied a request by Michael Avenatti, the lawyer for Stephanie Clifford, better known as Stormy Daniels, to immediately unseal the complaint. Both Avenatti and Keith Davidson, a lawyer who has represented both Clifford and Bechard in negotiating “hush payments,” are named as defendants in Bechard’s complaint.
