Pornographic film actress Stormy Daniels must pay President Donald Trump nearly $293,000 for his legal fees and another $1,000 in penalties after her defamation suit against him was dismissed, a federal judge in Los Angeles ordered on Dec. 11.
Attorney Charles Harder, acting on behalf of Trump, had told Judge S. James Otero on Dec. 3 that his law firm had spent more than 500 hours working on the case, ringing up a legal bill of almost $390,000. Otero cut the amount by 25 percent, resulting in $293,000.
