About those mental health records Avenatti wants from @StormyDaniels for next month's wire fraud trial in New York. Just in from Judge Furman: "...counsel for Complainant represents that no materials responsive to the subpoena exist."
Another Avenatti filing today: The joint status report for Judge Selna regarding Avenatti's proposed release conditions for the @StormyDaniels trial in New York. Hearing tomorrow at 10 a.m. (Basically he and @USAO_LosAngeles can't agree on anything.) bit.ly/3p0cAlq
Avenatti filed a brief to support his position, and there are some interesting details in it. "Further, defendant’s confinement to a small apartment and inability to exercise over the last 20 months has begun to adversely affect his health." bit.ly/3oYOtDT
This is new: In addition to unmonitored travel to NY, Avenatti wants to leave home confinement for "up to 2.0 hours each day without a custodian for the purposes of exercise, provided he obtains prior approval from Pretrial Services and remains subject to electronic monitoring."

It’s a crisp, sunny day in Orange County, California, and I’m here at the federal courthouse for a hearing in Michael Avenatti’s wire fraud case. He’s asking for unrestricted travel to New York to prepare for next month’s @StormyDaniels trial. Stay tuned for tweets. 🧵⚖️🧵 Image
As I posted yesterday, Avenatti is also asking to be allowed out of the Venice condo where he's on home confinement for up to two hours every day for exercise.
Hearing is at 10 a.m. with Senior U.S. District Judge James Selna, but they're having problems with the conference call system and tech is up here, so it might be a little delayed. Avenatti is here with standby counsel Dean Steward.

Criminal charges filed today over the Orange County oil spill.
Amplify emailed me this statement in response. Blames ship anchor and faulty detection system. "Had the crew known there was an actual oil spill in the water, they would have shut down the pipeline immediately." Image
Statement from Orange County’s top prosecutor on today’s federal charges in the oil spill:

I got this account back just in time for oil spill litigation leadership hearing, which is happening now with Judge Carter. Wylie Aitken is up explaining why Carter should pick him. Anyone who knows how well these two know each other has got to find this at least a bit amusing.
Judge Carter prefaced the discussion by saying he's known Wylie for 40-50 years, but he kinda downplayed it by pointing to Wylie's role in @SenFeinstein's judicial selection committee and saying all judges know Wylie well. (Sure, but Carter and Wylie are really, really close.)
Another notable at this hearing: Ex-Trump National Security Advisor @RobertCOBrien. Judge Carter is friends with him, too. He just said he was going to have O'Brien be a special master, until he realized O'Brien is still working with Stephen Larson, who has a leadership bid in.

Just in: The 9th Circuit has denied @USAO_LosAngeles prosecutors' request to schedule oral argument in Michael Avenatti's appeal for January. Argument will be calendared for the week of March 7-11.
Background: This is Avenatti's appeal of Judge Selna's rejection of his double jeopardy dismissal motion. One of Avenatti's lawyers from @Nike extortion trial is handling it, and he told the 9th he wasn't available for the two calendar weeks in February.
After Srebnick said he wasn't available in February, AUSA Alexander Robbins offered to file his answering brief early so the case could be calendared for January.

I am tuned in to the bankruptcy hearing on @jayedelson's motion to intervene in the Erika Girardi case. @RonaldRichards is of course out as the trustee's special counsel, but he's still here because he's, coincidentally, on a case calendared ahead of the Girardi case. #RHOBH
Here's some background on what's going on today:
Alright, Judge Russell is onto the Girardi matter. @erikajayne's lawyer Evan Borges of Greenberg Gross just made his appearance. Borges notes the presence of Larry Gabriel, who replaced @RonaldRichards as special counsel for trustee Elissa Miller. ggtriallaw.com/attorneys/evan…

New: Lawyers suing Facebook over Cambridge Analytica scandal win bid to access Mark Zuckerberg, Sheryl Sandberg's files. "...they were key decision-makers related to issues at the heart of Plaintiffs’ allegations, including friend sharing, whitelisting..." bit.ly/3Hlj8lY Image
This order from @JAMSADR special master Daniel Gurrie was signed Oct. 21, but it didn't show up in public filings until last night, amid Facebook's motion to seal "limited portions" of it. bit.ly/3qGg0vc
Here's the full order. It conveniently includes as exhibits the underlying filings. "Facebook does not contest that Zuckerberg’s and Sandberg’s custodial files contain
relevant information. Nor could they credibly do so." bit.ly/3Hlj8lY
