Michael Avenatti Moves From Federal Prison to Hollywood Halfway House

The transfer follows a shorter term ordered after a 2024 appeal with a 2025 resentencing.

Overview

  • The Bureau of Prisons confirmed he was moved from MDC Los Angeles to community confinement run by its Long Beach Residential Reentry Management office.
  • He remains in federal custody at a Hollywood halfway house, with a projected release date of September 8, 2028.
  • A probation order requires $5,937,725.58 in restitution, participation in mental health treatment, and compliance with restrictions on controlled substances.
  • His convictions include trying to extort up to $25 million from Nike and stealing nearly $300,000 from client Stormy Daniels, with some terms now running concurrently after resentencing.
  • After custody ends, he faces three years of supervised release, and he was disbarred in California in February 2025 following the criminal cases.
