Blac Chyna Allowed to Depose Ryan Seacrest in Kardashian Legal Battle
Article via Popculture
Blac Chyna will be allowed to depose Ryan Seacrest in her legal battle with the Kardashians.
According to The Blast, Chyna’s legal team will be allowed to grill Seacrest on any information he may have pertinent to her case against the family, wherein she claims that the Kardashians and Jenners executed a plan to publicly defame her for the purpose of getting her reality series Rob & Chyna cancelled so that it could be replaced with Life of Kylie.
She also requested that Seacrest be forced to turn over private texts between he and Kylie Jenner, but the court is not requiring that of him at this time.
Seacrest previously refused to agree to a deposition on the basis that he was not personally involved with Rob & Chyna, and therefore “there simply is no legal or factual basis to subject
to a deposition” because he “had nothing whatsoever to do with the events giving rise to this action” and “has no relevant testimony to offer.”
Chyna and her team hit back at Seacrest, issuing a statement in response that read, “Contrary to Mr. Seacrest’s conduct… celebrities with massive wealth and fame are not above the law.”
“Although the requested amount of sanctions for Mr. Seacrest’s conduct will not make a dent in Mr. Seacrest’s wealth as a practical matter, it is very important of this Court to send a message to Mr. Seacrest and the celebrity community that they, in fact, are not above the law,” Chyna’s attorney, Lynne Ciani wrote in an affidavit:
“While no Californian likes to be subpoenaed for a deposition, noncompliance with that subpoena without justification should not be permitted simply because the subpoenaed Californian has the money to pay his attorneys to mount a baseless defense to the subpoena in court,” the affidavit added.
Ciani then went on to address Seacrest’s claims that he was never involved with Rob & Chyna.
“Now Seacrest is now falsely claiming he had no involvement with the show getting picked up for a second season,” she said. “One of the defenses in this case is that Season 2 of Rob & Chyna did not go forward due to ‘poor ratings.’ ”0comments
“However, Mr. Seacrest likely has unique knowledge regarding the impact on Defendants Kris Jenner, Kim Kardashian, and Kylie Jenner of the fact that Season 1 of Rob & Chyna had higher ratings than the concurrent season of KUWTK, and twice the ratings of Rob & Chyna‘s Season 2 replacement show, Life of Kylie,” Ciani added.
There is no word on when Seacrest deposition will be held, but if Chyna’s team is not satisfied with his statements they will be allowed to to depose him a second time.

Blac Chyna Says Her Children ‘Were Never in Any Danger’ After Police Visit Her Home Twice
Article via People
Blac Chyna is speaking out about the wellbeing of her children after police were called to her home earlier this week.
In a statement provided by her attorney Lisa Bloom, Chyna said her 6-year-old son King Cairo (with Tyga) and 2-year-old daughter Dream Renée (with Rob Kardashian) are doing fine.
“Chyna’s children, King Cairo and Dream Renée, are both healthy and doing very well. They were never in any danger and any reports to the contrary are entirely false,” the statement read. “I remind the public that anyone who submits a knowingly false report to Child Protective Services may be subject to criminal and civil liability.”
Over the weekend, the Los Angeles Police Department responded to a call about a disturbance at Chyna’s home, a public information officer confirmed to PEOPLE.
At about 6:40 p.m., cops arrived at the mother of two’s home but did not find any evidence of a crime, the police said. Due to the lack of a crime, the police do not release the names of those who were in the home at the time of the visit.
According to TMZ, the caller alleged that Chyna was drunk and unable to care for Dream.
Chyna allegedly got into a fight with one of her makeup artists earlier that day, which may have prompted the call. TMZ also reported that along with Chyna, a nanny was home at the time.
Police were then called again to Chyna’s home on Monday, PEOPLE confirmed. Officers responded to a call at around 2:30 p.m. regarding a civil standby, meaning they were there to “keep the peace,” LAPD told PEOPLE.
TMZ reported that officers arrived to prevent an additional dispute allegedly between Chyna and her makeup artist. The outlet reported the makeup artist showed up with police in order to retrieve some of her belongings from the night before.
Meanwhile, Kardashian’s family is encouraging him to remain focused on what’s most important: his daughter.
“They always knew that Chyna wasn’t good for Rob and they’re just trying to keep him focused on his family, and not on his ex,” a source told PEOPLE.
“They are aware of what she does, and they obviously are not happy to hear that she’s getting in fights or acting negatively,” the source added. (Chyna’s attorney could not be immediately reached for comment.)
Despite the former couple’s fractured relationship, the KarJenner family — helmed by matriarch and momager Kris Jenner — only wants what’s best for Rob and Dream.
“They mostly care about what’s in Dream’s best interest, and in Rob’s,” the source said.
