The Breaking Point in the Miraval Dispute
For years, the battle over the $500 million winery has been locked in a stalemate. However, this recent Brad Pitt legal win changes the game. The court’s decision to grant Pitt access to Jolie’s private documents is seen as a move toward total transparency.
According to legal experts, these documents are crucial. Pitt’s team argues that Jolie’s 2021 sale of her stake to a Russian billionaire was a breach of their “mutual understanding.” For more context on celebrity business disputes, you can check our previous Hollywood Legal Analysis
Why the Discovery of NDAs is a Game-Changer
The defense team for Angelina Jolie previously claimed that she backed out of selling her share to Pitt because he demanded an “unreasonable” NDA. This latest Brad Pitt legal win allows his lawyers to compare that request with other NDAs Jolie has signed in the past.
- Transparency: The court is stripping away the “privacy shield.”
- Contractual Proof: Evidence may show if the sale was intended to damage Pitt’s business.
- Financial Stakes: A potential $35 million in damages is on the line.
