The proprietor of the “Crazy Days and Nights” gossip blog has filed a motion to throw out a defamation suit filed in November by Diana Jenkins, a former cast member of “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.”

Jenkins is seeking to reveal the true identity of the proprietor, who goes by the pseudonym Enty Lawyer. Jenkins alleges that Enty Lawyer has repeatedly defamed her with allegations that she is a high-end sex trafficker.

Enty Lawyer’s attorney, Ken White, filed a motion last week to strike the lawsuit under California’s anti-slapp statute, which protects defendants from frivolous suits intended to chill speech on topics of public interest.

The motion argues that Jenkins’ suit is unlikely to prevail in part because readers do not expect to get literal, provable facts from “Crazy Days and Nights,” which has been publishing blind items about celebrity sex scandals for the last 16 years.

The Department of Justice on Friday released a redacted version of the affidavit used to secure the search warrant authorizing the FBI’s Aug. 8 raid on former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate.

The affidavit reveals that the DOJ is investigating whether Trump and his team had the proper authorization to take classified documents from the White House to Mar-a-Lago. “There is probable cause to believe that the locations to be searched at the Premises contain evidence, contraband, fruits of crime, or other items illegally possessed,” according to the filing.

In the weeks after the FBI’s Mar-a-Lago raid, former President Donald Trump repeatedly made a simple-sounding but extraordinary ask: he wanted his lawyers to get “my documents” back from federal law enforcement.

Trump wasn’t merely referring to the alleged trove of attorney-client material that he insists was scooped up by the feds during the raid, two people familiar with the matter tell Rolling Stone. The ex-president has been demanding that his team find a way to recover “all” of the official documents that Trump has long referred to...

Back in the summer of 1985 a couple of rambunctious Irish lads—one 10, the other 13—were out and about in their Dublin neighborhood, up to their usual tricks. No worries there—they had promised their mums they’d return for supper.

“Aye, sure we will, ma,” had they said, or words to that effect, before they went rambling. But instead of coming back for dinner, they set out on an adventure, a romp that would take them from Dublin across the Irish Sea to Wales, on to London and then New York. All without the benefit of a ticket, a passport, any form of ID. The story of their escapade made headlines on both sides of the Atlantic.

“They decided that they would go on a little wander,” notes Garret Daly, director of Nothing to Declare, an Oscar-contending short documentary on the singular odyssey of Keith Byrne (the younger of the...

James Woods just scored a victory that’s nothing to sniff at. “Once Upon a Time in America” star Woods has dropped a lawsuit that he filed against an anonymous, since-deceased Twitter troll who called him a “cocaine addict,” after receiving a letter acknowledging that there was no evidence that he was addicted to coke, or anything else for that matter. Attorney Kenneth White told TheWrap on Wednesday, “The matter was resolved by mutual agreement of the Parties.” Also Read: James Woods Fires Back After Neil Patrick Harris Diss Over 'Gender Creative' Tweet In a letter sent to Woods’ attorney Michael Weinsten,...

James Woods has received a letter that he can now frame and put on his mantel shelf alongside his Emmy and Golden Globe awards.

From attorney Kenneth White, the letter states, "On behalf of my client — the defendant referred to as 'Abe List' in the lawsuit filed by James Woods — and my client's surviving family, I acknowledge that they are not aware of any facts to suggest that Mr. Woods has ever been a cocaine addict or used any other drugs."

To earn this, Woods filed a $10 million libel action in July 2015. The target...

James Woods in 'Videodrome.' James Woods in $10 million Twitter lawsuit feud: Crassly vocal right-wing actor goes after two crassly vocal users who attacked him In a letter dated Aug. 21, '15, Twitter attorney Ryan Mrazik ridiculed Surf's Up and Scary Movie 2 actor James Woods, while also highlighting the potentially dangerous precedent of a $10 million lawsuit the 68-year-old entertainer filed against a Twitter user last July. The lawsuit was followed by a subpoena demanding that the social media giant reveal the user's identity and that of another user with whom Woods has been embroiled in the (generally) no-holds-barred Twitterverse. In case you're unfamiliar with the name, these days the two-time Oscar-nominated Woods is best known for a supporting role as a right-wing sociopath in Roland Emmerich's thriller White House Down, starring Channing Tatum and Jamie Foxx (as a liberal-minded U.S. president despised by Woods' character), and for his relentless,...

The 911 call was chilling. At 1:20 pm on Thursday, 19-year-old Tiffany Van Alstyne frantically dialed 911. According to police, Van Alstyne, who was babysitting her cousins, claimed that two masked intruders had forced their way into her home in Clarksville, a rural town 10 miles south of Albany, New York. While one intruder pinned Alstyne down, the other grabbed 5-year-old Kenneth White and loaded him into a full-size black pickup truck, possibly an extended cab. Although two other young children were in the house, neither was taken by the intruders. The Albany County Sheriffs Office leapt into action, issuing an Amber Alert...

Paramedics arrive at the scene of a call-out, where they find a man alone, distressed and apparently unwell. They get him onto a gurney and take him to hospital. Anthony, (Emerson Brooks) one of the paramedics, blares the siren, which appears to distress him further. He wakes up uncontrollable and Anna Vargas (Jaclyn De Santis) asks for help. He then holds a gun on them both and shoots them dead. Wiping his prints clean form the ambulance; he misses the fact he got hold of Vargas's glove when they lifted him onto the gurney in the beginning. Brenda (Kyra Sedgwick) arrives at the scene and Tao (Michael Paul Chan) demos what a Gs lift is - giving her an idea as to what to look for on the DBs. But Taylor (Robert Gossett) tells her the Lafd took them away. Just as the Lapd does for its officers, she wants...
