Dec. 25 (UPI) -- One of two attorneys representing Lev Parnas, an associate of presidential attorney Rudy Giuliani, has asked to be removed from the case due to a payment issue, a court filing Tuesday said.
Attorney Edward MacMahon made the request of Judge J. Paul Oetken in a filing in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, describing concern for Parnas' ability to pay for his legal defense.
