Is this a Federal or State thing?Even for a transaction based on sex?Are you saying that hush money makes for a legal, binding transaction?...er...uh..., you do understand that the $130,000 was "hush" money, right? That her part of the contract was to keep her mouth shut, right?
If it's accompanied with a legal non-disclosure agreement, then yes - it is a binding legal transaction.
Wow!
Yes. She signed a piece of paper agreeing not to discuss her sexual experiences with Donald Trump, and in return she was given $130,000.
It's common law. The law of contracts.
