NEW: BigLaw firm King & Spalding, which registered as an agent for the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs under FARA in 2017, claims it's not authorized to accept service for the now-indicted Halkbank, which the firm represented during the DOJ investigation.
Reminder: Halkbank's former Trump-connected lobbyist Ballard Partners terminated its lucrative contract the day after the Turkish state-run bank's indictment.
More context: King & Spalding advises Trump's real estate empire, and its ties to the administration have been the subject of multiple news reports.

From June 2017: nytimes.com/2017/06/07/us/…

"The call appeared to be one of the most unfortunate of faux pas: what is known, in casual parlance, as a butt dial."
“Is Robert around?” Giuliani asks.

“He’s in Turkey,” the man responds.

Giuliani replies instantly. “The problem is we need some money.”

NBC noted the link in their story, adding it's unclear the context of the conversation.

This whole story of the butt dial is a wild ride.

Good morning from New York.

Trump's subpoena fight with Manhattan DA Vance heads to the Second Circuit this morning at 10 am EST, and then the arraignment of Giuliani's associates Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman start at 11:30 am EST.

Properly caffeinated, for @CourthouseNews.
@CourthouseNews Hearing up ahead.

Let's boogie.
@CourthouseNews Chief Second Circuit Judge Robert Katzmann:

"Good morning, you may be seated."

Up first, Trump v. Vance.

"Zuberi’s LinkedIn IDs him as vice chairman of priv equity and VC firm Avenue Ventures. He has “closed over $15B...” at the firm, whose clients include start-ups, major corps and sovereign wealth funds...

Avenue Ventures does not appear to have a working website..." 🚩
