Jen Shahs resolve to make her victims whole and to turn her life around is unyielding.
(On Monday, the judge agreed to let them off the case.)
Several longtime attorneys tell Vulture the outlook isnt sunny for Shahs onetime legal team.
Trying to collect would likely involve a complicated legal battle that could wind up costing more than the debt.
When attorneys do that, their clients can hit back in messy ways.
For that reason, most lawyers dont even pursue litigation.
That said, Jen Shah is Jen Shah.
She could be a wild card.
Jen Shah is not your typical criminal defendant, Rahmani said.
Shes taken some pretty extreme positions.
She maintained her innocence up until the 11th hour.
As for Chaudhrys chances for actually collecting, Rahmani described them as slim.
Chaudhry did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Judges generally have to green-light the lien.
Then, Fiset said, the court determines what the appropriate payments are.
Its like paying off a debt, Fiset said.
For example, could Shah get royalties for her old Bravo appearances?
Does she have any property that could be sold off?
Still, usually an attorney would take a stab at get their fees completed before their cases are finished.
We can only hope Shah will include this drama in her purportedly upcomingprison production.
