According to a number of retailers, Christine needs Kevin to pay a “whopping” $885,000 towards her authorized charges… In addition to what he’s already forked out. But his lawyer ain’t buyin’ it.
On Monday, the Man of Steel star’s lawyer Parima Pandkhou filed a response to the request within the Superior Court of California, calling it “unreasonable” and “nothing short of ridiculous.” She argued:
“When the numbers are so large, it is easy to lose perspective of the actual value of these numbers. To demonstrate the practical value of Christine’s requested award: $885,000 pays for 1,106 hours of attorney time at a rate of $800/hour.”
Oop! When you break it down like that, that does sound fairly wild…
In response to Christine’s argument that Kevin has spent extra on authorized charges, so she needs to be awarded extra, Parima added that that’s totally due to her personal decisions:
“The amount Kevin has incurred cannot be the talisman of how much Christine should be awarded in fees. That is because Kevin has been forced to spend substantial attorney’s fees as a result of Christine’s uncooperative conduct.”
Damn! It looks like Christine is floundering… particularly after being ordered to pay a few of Kevin’s authorized charges! And but once more, this all appears to be a query of equity for. her — and she or he defines that as she deserves to be simply as wealthy as he’s. Thus far judges haven’t agreed!
