Angelina Jolie pushes back at Brad Pitt over his attempt to secure her tax returns for years following their split
Angelina Jolie is pushing back on ex-husband Brad Pitt in his efforts to retrieve her tax returns for the three years following their split, amid their ongoing ...
The Fight Club star, 62, in legal documents reviewed by the Daily Mail, has requested Jolie turn in her tax records and other financial documentation spanning the years 2017-2019, based off remarks she made that she says Pitt is taking out of context.
The 51-year-old Maleficent star said in new legal documents reviewed by TMZ that his efforts are part of a 'continued mischaracterization and selective quoting' of statements she's made about the long-running case.
Pitt told the court he has expounded time and labor into the Correns, winery, and Jolie breached a pact they had previously made when she looked to sell her share of the estate to Russian billionaire Yuri Shefler.
Jolie told the court that she didn't need Pitt's approval over the transaction; and that he took past statements that she made the sale to achieve 'financial independence' out of context.
The Daily Mail has reached out to representatives for Jolie and Pitt for further comment on the story.

Jolie clarified her comment to mean that she wanted to delineate her finances from Pitt's in an effort to separate herself from him, and not about her money situation in general.

Pitt's legal team said that if Jolie 'had substantial income and other resources during the relevant period,' financial records 'would directly undermine her claim' that she had 'no meaningful alternative' business-wise, 'but to sell her interests in' the winery.
Pitt's attorneys noted that Jolie, also an Oscar-winner, 'is a globally recognized actress who had commanded extraordinary compensation for major studio work, including reported compensation of approximately $33 million for Maleficent.'
The sum helped make her 'Forbes' highest- actress for that year.'
Lawyers for Pitt noted that based off Jolie's 'allegations that she lacked meaningful economic alternatives,' they are 'entitled to' probe the claim with evidence.
