Brad Pitt has applied to the court to compel Angelina Jolie to hand over details of her income and tax returns for 2017\u20132019. The request was made as part of the former couple\u2019s property dispute over the French winery Ch\u00e2teau Miraval. Jolie\u2019s side objects, arguing that such documents constitute an excessive intrusion into her privacy.<\/p>\n
Briefly about the main points<\/strong><\/p>\n Lawyers Pitta<\/strong> believe that the financial data Jolie<\/strong> are relevant to the assessment of her explanations regarding the sale of her stake in the winery. The actress had previously stated that she was seeking financial independence from her ex-husband and wished to divide their joint assets once and for all.<\/p>\n The actor\u2019s representatives are requesting details of his earnings from film roles, advertising contracts, collaborations with brands and other professional projects. In their view, without this information, the jury may not be able to form a complete picture of the circumstances surrounding the deal.<\/p>\n In the application dated 31 July, Pitt\u2019s lawyers also pointed out that Jolie had refused to limit the scope of evidence regarding her earnings during the forthcoming proceedings. According to the actor\u2019s side, this provides grounds for requesting the financial statements in question.<\/p>\n Jolie\u2019s defence team is asking the court to dismiss the application. The actress\u2019s lawyers argue that the reference to financial independence related to the separation of her financial affairs from Pitt\u2019s, rather than a general lack of funds.<\/p>\n Angelina Jolie\u2019s representatives emphasise that she has not claimed to be in financial difficulty. They believe that her opponents are selectively interpreting her previous statements in order to justify accessing her personal information.<\/p>\n The actress has already voluntarily submitted her income and tax details for 2020 and 2021. Her legal team maintains that a request for documents covering an earlier period would constitute a serious infringement of her right to privacy. The court has not yet issued a final ruling on this request.<\/p>\n\n
