Michael Avenatti will face charges he stole $300,000 from porn star Stormy Daniels in New York, a judge ruled Tuesday — following a request from the attorney that the case be transferred to California.

The scandal-scarred lawyer previously claimed the case was similar to other charges he’s facing in California for defrauding clients, and should be therefore be transferred there.

But Manhattan federal court Judge Debora Batts wrote the cases don’t share enough in common to merit the move.

“This case is a straightforward fraud case involving one victim, concerns a narrow course of conduct that lasted for approximately eight months, and was brought as a two-count Indictment,” Batts wrote of the New York case in which Avenatti is accused of pocketing funds meant for the adult film actress, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford.

“On the other hand, the California Prosecution involves five victims, concerns a wide array of alleged criminal conduct, including, but not limited to, tax, bank fraud, obstruction, and false statements offenses that lasted over a five year period, and was brought as a 36-count Indictment,” read the order.

Avenatti is also facing charges of extortion in Manhattan federal court, for allegedly trying to blackmail Nike into turning over $20 million.

He’s pleaded not guilty to all charges.
