On April 7, 2006, the Los Angeles Superior Court judge hearing Paul's civil fraud and coercion case against the Clintons and their associates, for causing the collapse of Stan Lee Media by Clinton's efforts to go into business with Paul's Japanese partner, Tendo Oto, ordered that Bill Clinton et al be tried on March 27, 2007. This opened the way for discovery and the depositions of a President and a Senator for committing a million dollar business fraud in order to generate the largest donation to the Senator's first election campaign.

==Cuban Coffee DealPaul's Pre-Clinton Career==
"In the 1970s, before even turning 30, Paul was a prominent civic leader in Miami, having become president of the city's World Trade Center," John Dorschner [http://www.miami.com/mld/miamiherald/business/6892806.htm wrote] in the ''Miami Herald''. Paul directed various anti-Castro activities in connection with his international law practice and orchestrated what Time Magazine named "the Cuban Coffee Caper" in 1978, which exposed Fidel Castro's ongoing frauds against the Soviet Union in his acquiring and selling black market coffee as Cuban coffee to Russia for a greatly increased subsidized price. Time Magazine wrote a full page story on the affair in its February 12, 1979 issue.
Paul relocated to California in 1985, where he was appointed by California Governor Deukmejian as President of the California Bicentennial Foundation for the US Constitution with the help of [[Ronald Reagan]] and his Los Angeles Kitchen Cabinet. Paul worked closely with former [[Supreme Court]] Chief Justice [[Warren Burger]] for the three-year commemoration of the Constitution and Bill of Rights. Paul co-produced [http://peterfpaul.blogspot.com Reagan's Welcome Home Dinner]in Beverly Hills ten days before Reagan left the White House January 20, 1989.
Paul co-founded the [[American Spirit Foundation]] in 1989 with legendary actor Jimmy Stewart, dedicated to harnessing entertainment industry resources to reverse the failure of youth at risk in public schools. The Foundation also assisted democracy movements in the former Soviet Union, Warsaw Pact and People's Republic of China. Paul worked with Boris Yeltsin's staff, Lech Walesa and the ambassadors of the People's Republic of China as a liason with the entertainment industry in a variety of projects. Stan Lee was tapped by Paul and Stewart to chair the Foundation leading to the relationship between Paul and Lee that resulted in the formation of Stan Lee Media in 1998.
Paul entered into the business of Hollywood when he began packaging celebrity books and associated literary agent ''wunderkind'' (who discovered Tom Clancy) Robert Gottlieb, in packaging "Men From Earth" by Apollo XI Astronaut Buzz Aldrin, "The Autobiography of Muhammad Ali" by Thomas Hauser, "Tony Curtis: The Autobiography" with Barry Paris. In 1992 he set out to create his own "media icon" and masterminded the introduction of a retired male model from Italy as the first male Romance Novel writer. He turned Fabio Lanzoni into Fabio, the best selling novelist and spokesman and icon for romance and women's issues in the media. By the end of 1993, with Fabio on the cover of People Magazine and featured on Entertainment Tonite more than any Hollywood celebrity, Fabio became an International best selling novelist, calendar figure, recording artist, fragrance promoter and the spokesman for "I Cant Believe Its Not Butter". Paul arranged for Fabio to be honored with Justice Scalia and Danny DeVito by the National Italian American Foundation where Fabio picked up First Lady Hillary Clinton by her derriere and had her engage in various Romance poses with him. In 1998, Paul liberated his close friend, creator of Spider Man, X-Men et al Stan Lee, from Marvel Comics so they could found an online superhero production and animation studio, Stan Lee Media. By 2000, Stan Lee Media became the leading online animation, super hero creation, production and marketing animation studio in Hollywood. It employed 165 producers, animators, artists and writers and won the Web Award for the best Entertainment Portal on the web in 2000. SLM went public in August, 1999 and by February, 2000, the company had a market value of $360 million. Paul used his internet wealth to attempt to hire Bill Clinton to work with him and the company when Clinton was to leave the White House in January, 2001.
According to allegations in Paul's landmark fraud lawsuit against the Clintons, Bill Clinton's interference with Paul's Japanese partner, who Clinton secretly went into business with through his liaison Jim Levin in November, 2000, resulted in the loss of promised funding for SLM in November, 2000, when the NASDQ collapse shuttered more than 250 internet companies. Stan Lee Media closed in December, 2000 as a result and Paul relocated to Brazil where he had a language company since 1997.
