Stormy Daniels’s lawyer asked to be allowed to join the case over evidence seized from President Donald Trump’s personal lawyer and fixer Michael Cohen.

Michael Avenatti told a judge in Manhattan Thursday that he just wants "a seat at the table" to protect his client’s interests while lawyers for Cohen, Trump, Trump’s company and prosecutors argue over which documents are covered by attorney-client privilege.
