Did you read that the judge you referred to ^^^^^ said that an indictment was likely?
I didn't know the judge made that prediction. It kind of surprises me that she'd make such a public comment. But, I think most people following the story assume an indictment is imminent considering how much probable cause would have been required for the NY prosecutors to obtain the no-knock search warrants against Cohen.
Anyway, I think the judge made the right and fair call in delaying the Daniels' civil case.
And, I suspect Daniels' attorney is highly disappointed. Avenatti seems well-versed on all aspects of the law and court proceedings; he's gotta be aware that his client's case will most likely be delayed substantially longer than 90 days given the volume and significance of potential criminal evidence gathered in the search of Cohen's office and residence.
