Chapter 216 Ronald as a witness(2/2)

values, true love comes first.

"That's not what I meant when I said embarrassment..." Spielberg interrupted Ronald, "I mean I need your help with something... I shouldn't have troubled you with such a personal matter."

"Me?" Ronald was surprised, "Why should I be involved in your divorce? Do I have to witness your divorce after I witnessed your marriage? Do Jews have this custom?"

"I do need your witness, but it's not a divorce..." Spielberg was amused and he regained some sense of humor.

It turns out that he really has something that needs Ronald to witness.

The divorce application submitted by Amy Irving falls into the category of uncontested divorce. In other words, the couple has reached a consensus on the reasons for the divorce and the responsibility for the breakdown of the marriage, as well as the division of property.

They got married in New Mexico, and Spielberg went there because it did not recognize the principle of equal division. During the three and a half years of their marriage, the wealth earned by the two would not be divided in half unprincipled, but would be divided according to the principle.

The two people’s prenuptial agreement and their contribution to wealth should be considered comprehensively.

However, the two people’s permanent residence is in California, so their divorce case is still filed in California courts. Of course, California courts must also respect the laws of the place where they were married and will not divide money based on California’s principle of equal division.

Generally speaking, after receiving the uncontested application and the prenuptial agreement that Spielberg wrote on a napkin at that time, the judge will basically rule on the division of property.

But this judge got into trouble. I don’t know whether it was because he was a fan of Amy Irving or was dissatisfied with Spielberg for letting ET go home. He took the initiative to challenge the terms of Spielberg’s divorce agreement.

Judicial review.

The focus of the dispute lies in the legality of the terms of the prenuptial agreement written on a napkin. Whether Amy Irving was fully informed at that time, whether the specific content of the agreement was explained to her by a lawyer, and whether she was coerced and

Cheating etc.

As a temporary best man and witness at Spielberg's wedding, Ronald was also included in the witness list.

"What? I want to go to court to testify? Prove that you didn't cheat on Amy before you got married?" Ronald thought it was ridiculous. Why are you getting divorced and you still need me as a witness? Your wife and I don't know each other that well...

"This is really embarrassing. You don't need to go to court. It just requires evidence (deposition) in the presence of lawyers from both sides. I'll let my lawyer talk to you." Spielberg also felt that this kind of privacy was being spread out.

The inspection was embarrassing, but I had to ask Ronald for help.

His property is close to one billion U.S. dollars, and the money he earned during his marriage to Amy is two to three billion. If this is sentenced to be divided equally, it will far exceed the price of the divorce of his old friend George Lucas.

"The witness will testify under the questioning of the other party's lawyer and in the presence of the court reporter. All this is strictly confidential. In addition to me, it is best for you to have your own lawyer present, so as to maximize privacy and your

Interests.

If the opposing lawyer's questions go beyond the scope, we can lodge a protest. All this is done in a fair and confidential environment, and there is absolutely no possibility of leaks. I can guarantee this, and my client, Mr. Spielberg, will also

Don't let your friends get caught up in gossipy reports.

At that time, we will use special arrangements to enter another law firm, and those reporters will not come."

This professional arrangement dispelled Ronald's concerns. He called Lindsay Dole and got the same answer. The two arranged a time, and Ronald agreed to collect evidence.

"Ronald, thank you, I will not forget your help." Spielberg came over to give Ronald a hug, thanking his friends for still standing by his side at this time.

"Take care, the gossip media will be waiting at your door these two days." Ronald patted Spielberg.
