Paul v. Clinton Paul v. Clinton was a civil suit filed in 2004 held in Los Angeles County Superior Court. The plaintiff, Peter F. Paul, alleged that President Bill Clinton and his wife, First Lady Hillary Clinton, deceived him into paying for the Gala Hollywood Farewell Salute to President Clinton, during Hillary Clinton's first Senate race in 2000, by making a promise that the President would work for Paul's company, Stan Lee Media, after his presidential term was over. Paul alleged that the President broke his promise and stole his business partner, causing his business to crumble and, further, that his contributions to Hillary Clinton's campaign were falsely reported to the Federal Election Commission. Besides the Clintons, three other individuals who were involved in fundraising for the gala, were named as defendants in the suit.
