Judge's ruling on Wednesday, Christine must cover over $14K of Kevin’s legal costs that he says he accrued while trying to obtain answers about her understanding of their prenuptial agreement.
Judge emphasized that this is “certainly a case of consequence.”
Kevin's attorneys asked the court to compel Christine to respond to their questions, claiming she “refuses to make known all of her contentions regarding the validity of the PMA.”
The documents filed by Costner's attorneys :
“The objections she has mustered in an effort to not disclose her contentions are frivolous. She says she does not understand words like ‘understood’ or ‘negotiation,’ so she cannot answer this discovery. Discovery is not a game of chicken. Kevin should never have been required to spend money to file a motion..”
His attorneys further called out Kevin's request to have Christine pay that amount: "Kevin asserts that he should not have to pay fees and costs for Christine to challenge the validity of the PMA. He also regularly claims that the PMA is valid and that there is no evidence to the contrary. This is the legal equivalent of whistling past the graveyard."
They will appear in court again in December to hash out the validity of their premarital agreement.
