- Michael Avenatti, the high-profile lawyer known for his battles with U.S. President Donald Trump, was charged with 36 counts of fraud, tax evasion and other financial crimes in an indictment made public by federal prosecutors in Los Angeles on Thursday.

The indictment means the grand jury has found the California prosecutors have probable cause to pursue their charges. Avenatti, 48, has said he is innocent. The New York prosecutors have separately accused Avenatti of trying to blackmail Nike Inc for more than $20 million. The alleged co-conspirator is prominent Los Angeles attorney Mark Geragos, according to a person familiar with the matter who spoke on condition of anonymity. Geragos, who has not been charged with a crime, has declined to comment on the case.
