Porn star Stormy Daniels, real name Stephanie Clifford, has been ordered to pay nearly $300,000 in attorneys’ fees to former President Donald Trump, a federal appeals court ruled Friday.

The U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit “said it had no jurisdiction over Daniels’ appeal of the attorneys’ fees issue because she failed to file a notice of appeal within a 30-day deadline of a federal judge granting the fees to Trump,” CNBC reported Tuesday. “The appeals court also said that the same judge had properly included another $1,000 in sanctions against Daniels in the same judgment that awarded Trump attorneys’ fees.”

Trump lawyer Harmeet K. Dhillon responded to the news Monday night. “It was an honor for my team to represent President Trump in this successful 9th circuit ruling,” she tweeted. “Onward!”

Dhillon also confirmed to reporter Meghann Cuniff that “Daniels owes Trump $292k in attorney fees,” adding that the lawsuit was “pushed so aggressively by [Michael] Avenatti for purposes that certainly did not benefit his client.”
