Hindustan Times :
A company founded by Angelina Jolie has filed a case against Brad Pitt for $250
million. The lawsuit
is over the couple’s French winery that they bought together. In July, a judge in Los Angeles said that Brad and his partners must turn over documents to Angelina’s team, making her win the case. The new case comes as a shock after Angelina already won the case in July.
The new lawsuit claims that Brad launched a campaign to ‘seize control’ of the French winery that they bought as a couple ‘in retaliation for the divorce and custody proceedings’ and to ‘ensure… Jolie would never see a dime’ of the winery’s profit.
As per a Page Six report, the court papers were filed on Tuesday in Los Angeles. It claimed that after Angelina and Brad bought the 1,300-acre estate in the South of France in 2008 and jointly invested tens of millions of dollars to improve it and that each one of them owned 50 per cent of it.
The document also revealed that ‘much of Angelina’s personal wealth’ was tied up in the winery. The former couple had bought the Chateau Miraval winery in 2008 for an estimated $28.3 million, and had agreed not to sell their interests in the company. However, Brad sued Angelina, accusing her of selling her part of their French vineyard.
