Scarlett Johansson Threatening Websites Over Stolen Pics

Posted by andPOP Staff on September 15th, 2011

Scarlett Johansson’s lawyer is threatening some celebrity websites that are showing the hacked naked pics of Scarlett. TMZ says attorney Marty Singer has issued threatening letters to sites like The Dirty.com.

Singer claims, “The highly personal and private photographs at issue capture our client self-posing in her own home in a state of undress and/or topless.”

Singer continues, “If you fail to comply, you will be acting at your own peril. Please govern yourselves accordingly.”

As we reported earlier, the FBI has launched an investigation into the hacking.

Sienna Miller Wins Lawsuit Against Newspaper

Posted by Christian Allaire on May 13th, 2011

Sienna Miller has reached an out-of-court settlement with the newspaper ‘News of the World,’ reports E Online.

The settlement will see that the tabloid pay her a whopping $162,000 in damages after it accepted all liability for hacking into the actress’ phone for scoops on her private life. Talk about ruthless journalism.

The tabloid will also provide Miller with a full accounting of the wiretapping that took place between 2004 and 2005. That was when several of of the newspaper’s reporters, three of whom have since been jailed, gained illegal access to the actress’s private voicemails in an effort to dig up dirt on her relationship with then-beau Jude Law.

“We are pleased that we have managed to bring this case to a satisfactory conclusion,” read a statement from the newspaper. “Several weeks ago we admitted liability in certain cases and offered a genuine and unreserved apology. We hope to resolve other cases swiftly.”

Lawyers for the paper then went on to clarify the nature of the material that it’s agreed to disclose to Miller’s camp.

“For the record, reports that have been ordered to disclose 8,000 emails to Ms. Miller are inaccurate,” continued the statement. “The error stems from a reference in court to the fact that a total of 8,000 e-mails were being searched to ascertain whether any Sienna Miller-related material was amongst them.”

Miller’s attorney, Hugh Tomlinson, was quoted telling the court yesterday his client didn’t care about the money (she initially demanded $650,000 in compensation) as much as knowing “the extent of wrongdoing.”

“In those circumstances, her primary concern is not how much money is awarded by way of compensation but to know exactly what the extent was of the hacking which took place,” he said.

Good for her, that’s just a whole other level of privacy-disruption. I’m all for digging for dirt and exposing celebrities, but never would I tap a phone or hide in the bushes to do it. I’ll get my information from someone else.

Jeff Goldblum Asks for a Restraining Order, Past Stalker to be Released

Posted by Jacob Morris on November 20th, 2010

Actor Jeff Goldblum sent his lawyer to court Friday to ask a judge for a restraining order against a woman who used to stalk him in advance of her release from a mental institution.  Linda Ransom has been stalking Goldblum since 2001 and has been arrested five times in connection with similar activities.

Ransom has been booked for both trespassing and stalking before and, as TMZ reports, will soon be released from the institution that she has been at since she was declared incompetent in 2009.

However, the restraining order that Goldblum’s lawyer wanted was denied by the judge, who said that before an order can be given Ransom will have to pose a new, legitimate threat.  Definitely bad news for the guy.

If and when the woman does go after the actor again, it’s likely that an order would be issued, but until then Goldblum will have to wait and hope for the best.

Oksana Grigorieva Loses Her Lead Lawyer

Posted by Jacob Morris on October 22nd, 2010

More bad news for Oksana Grigorieva today as her big wig lawyer was refused the right to practice law in the state of California by a judge.

Martin Garbus, practices law in New York, and was denied the ability to represent his client in California.  The famed lawyer has defended the likes of Robert Redford, Al Pacino, and Spike Lee.

“This is devastating for Oksana because here you have her lead counsel unable to work on the case and speak on her behalf in a court of law,” a source said, according to RadarOnline, continuing, “it is a major problem for her legal team because she needs a lead counsel that has family law experience.”

Unfortunately for her, Oksana will have to wait until November 10th to try and get Garbus back in the court room with her to fight Mel Gibson.

Oksana Grigorieva Looking for a New Lawyer

Posted by Megan MacKay on September 17th, 2010

TMZ is reporting that Mel Gibson’s latest baby mama, Oksana Grigorieva, is unhappy with the quality of her legal counsel. Oksana is holding several legal meetings in Beverly Hills this week, including one this morning with Neal Hersh of Hersh, Mannis & Bogen.

Oksana’s current firm is battling the courts to get her $40,000 a month in child support from the Braveheart star, a huge boost from her current $5k monthly settlement.

Keep in mind that those numbers are for one baby. That’s barely comparable to the $2,500 cheque she’s receiving monthly for Alexander, her preteened son from a previous marriage. Little Lucia sure is high maintenance!

Neal Hersh may be a good choice for Oksana. Some of his past clients include Pamela Anderson and Denise Richards, both of whom are socially aware ladies with endless amounts of class and grace.  Right?

…Okay, well, at least they’ve got money in the bank.

Granted, Oksana is a little nutso, but Mel Gibson isn’t exactly the nicest guy in the world.  So if we have to pick the lesser of two evils, we’re pulling for team Grigorieva. After all, how bad can you be when you write delightful ballads for Josh Groban?

Hopefully this settlement gets resolved soon for the Lucia’s sake!

Lindsay Lohan Says She Is Staying Out of Jail and Has New Lawyer

Posted by andPOP Staff on July 12th, 2010

Although Lindsay Lohan has been sentenced to 90 days in jail, she is still convinced she can stay out of jail. In order to do so, she has hired Stuart V. Goldberg from Chicago to represent her.

“Lindsay has no intention of going to jail,” a friend of Lohan’s tells PopEater. “The only thing that Lindsay did wrong was hire the wrong attorney and now she has fixed that.”

Although Lindsay is supposed to start her sentence on July 20, with her new lawyer in charge, Lohan is convinced she won’t have to go to jail.

“She is paying her new lawyer a fortune to fix this mess. She doesn’t care what it takes,” an insider tells PopEater. “If Lindsay needs to start a Facebook campaign or set up protests or something like that she is totally into it. They are treating Lindsay differently because she is a star, so it’s about time she used her star power to help her. She’s seen the movie ‘Chicago’ several times, so it’s not like she doesn’t know how this sort of thing works!”

With what Lindsay is paying in legal fees to Mr. Goldberg, this new lawyer better do something for her!

Jon Gosselin Fires His Lawyer – Trying To Resolve The Issues With Kate Gosselin

Posted by andPOP Staff on April 22nd, 2010

We don’t want to spend so much time on Kate and Jon Gosselin, but we have to give the people what they want.

So here’s the most recent Jon and Kate Gosselin update. Jon has fired his attorney and he tweeted about it this morning.

“Kate, her attorneys and I are moving forward to work out things privately and amicably.”

And, as for his ex-legal representative? “Mr. Anthony List Sr., Esq., is not my representing attorney; I terminated him on April 15, 2010. He has no legal right to speak to the press or anyone on my behalf.”

List was apparently a long time friend of Jon’s father, reports PEOPLE. List promised Jon’s father before his death that he would help Jon.

Britney’s Dad Still in Charge

Posted by andPOP Staff on February 5th, 2008

Britney Spears’ father is still the conservator of her estate, at least until Valentine’s Day.

Jamie Spears was given the responsibility for his daughter’s well-being on Friday, but it was only a temporary order. He faced off against Britney’s lawyer again yesterday and won, with the extension of his role as her caretaker until Feb. 14.

MTV reports that Jamie Spears contested that his daughter did not have the mental capacity to hire her attorney, Adam Streisand, and therefore she should not be in his legal charge.

Britney is still hospitalized, and is rumoured to be receiving treatment for bipolar affective disorder.
