Blac Chyna and Kardashians to face off in 2020 trial
Blac Chyna is taking the Kardashians to trial.
The Lashed salon owner, whose real name is Angela White, will face off in court against Kris Jenner, Kim Kardashian, Kylie Jenner and Khloé Kardashian on Feb. 3, 2020, when a jury will hear her argument that the reality-TV family “unlawfully plotted” to end Chyna and Rob Kardashian’s E! reality show, “Rob & Chyna.”
The judge also granted Chyna’s motions compelling the E! network and Bunim Murray Productions, the production company behind the reality TV show, to produce documents relating to Season 2 of “Rob & Chyna.” The court rejected E!’s argument that the documents were “trade secrets” and ordered the company to hand over the documents to Chyna’s attorneys, according to a press release from Chyna’s lawyer, Lisa Bloom.
The court also rejected Bunim Murray’s attempt to force Blac Chyna to pay over $100,000 to Bunim Murray for its relevant documents.
Ryan Seacrest, who executive produces “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” and “Rob & Chyna,” will be deposed in spring 2019.
“We look forward to getting these witnesses under oath and asking them questions,” Bloom said in a statement.
“We are pleased that Kris, Kim, Khloe, and Kylie will have to answer our client’s detailed allegations against them at a jury trial in a Los Angeles courtroom. Blac Chyna wants everyone to know that no one is above the law, no matter how much money, power, or influence you have,” said co-counsel Lynne M. Ciani of The Bloom Firm.
Page Six has reached out to the Kardashians’ attorney for comment.
As Page Six previously reported, Chyna sued Rob and his family in October 2017, claiming they “intentionally interfered” with the show “Rob & Chyna” so E! wouldn’t bring it back for a second season, which “harmed” Chyna “personally, professionally and financially.”
“Rob Kardashian is an abuser intent on destroying Angela White, the mother of his baby, who left him in 2016,” Chyna’s lawsuit claimed. “In revenge, the Kardashian-Jenner family became media predators, slut-shaming her on social media and killing her hit television show [‘Rob & Chyna’], which had already begun filming a second season.”
