The notice comes 10 days after the celebrity lawyer was sentenced in New York for stealing book proceeds from onetime client Stormy Daniels.

Michael Avenatti, the Southern California lawyer who represented porn star Stormy Daniels in a legal fight against former president Donald Trump and later was convicted of bilking her out of hundreds of thousands of dollars, announced on Sunday that he will plead guilty in the last of three criminal cases against him

Avenatti submitted his intention to plead guilty in a federal case against him in the Central District of California alleging over 30 counts of embezzlement, perjury and tax-related felonies, according to a court document filed on Sunday.Avenatti, who once had offices in Newport Beach and Los Angeles, has been accused of stealing settlement money from several clients to help rescue his law firm from bankruptcy and to pay for other expenses.

“Despite repeated efforts over the last year by Mr. Avenatti and his counsel, including substantial efforts made in the last 30 days, defendant has been unable to reach a plea agreement with the government,” Avenatti’s defense team wrote in the court notice. “Mr. Avenatti wishes to plea in order to be accountable; avoid his former clients being further burdened; save the Court and the government significant resources; and save his family further embarrassment,” it states.The change in the celebrity lawyer’s plea comes ten days after a federal judge in New York sentenced him to two and a half years for stealing book proceeds from Daniels.
