- Russian-born billionaire back on the hook in winery fight between Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie
Brad Pitt sued Angelina Jolie over the sale of her stake in Château Miraval to Yuri Shefler, a Russian-born billionaire. A California appeals court ruled Shefler had sufficient California contacts to justify jurisdiction, reversing a prior dismissal. The court found Shefler directed negotiations and guaranteed payment for Jolie's shares.
