Angelina Jolie has scored a win in her legal battle with ex-husband Brad Pitt over Château Miraval.
In a significant courtroom win for Angelina, a judge has ruled that she will not be required to hand over private emails tied to the sale of her stake in the French winery, marking a setback for Brad in the long-running dispute. According to PageSix, on 4th May, a Los Angeles Superior Court judge ruled that Brad, 62, cannot compel Angelina, 50, to hand over a series of private emails related to the sale of her stake in the French winery, siding with Angelina’s claim that the communications are protected, according to court documents.
The judge denied Brad’s motion, ruling that he “has not met his burden” to override her claim that they are protected. The motion was “denied without prejudice,” meaning Brad could raise the issue again later.
This development follows a prior ruling in December 2025, when a judge had directed Angelina to hand over the e-mails. That decision was later found to be flawed, prompting a higher court to send the matter back for reconsideration.
