Attorneys for Michael Avenatti have requested he be sentenced to no more than six months in prison and one year of home confinement for his attempt to extort $25 million from sportswear company Nike.
The Associated Press reported that Avenatti’s attorneys say the former high-profile attorney has suffered enough after spending three months in jail and facing public ridicule for his “cataclysmic fall.” The outlet noted that Avenatti faces 11 to 14 years in prison after he was convicted by a jury of extortion.
