In 2022, actor Brad Pitt filed a suit against his ex-wife Angelina Jolie over the selling of her share to the French vineyard in which they owned a shared stake. They had settled an agreement that neither should sell a stake without their mutual acceptance. She sold her to Stoli, the owner and leader of the Russian liquor firm, Yuri Shefler. Pitt filed the lawsuit against the sale as a violation of their agreement. On the other hand, Jolie countersued Pitt for $250 million in retaliation over their custody battle. In October 2023, Pitt's lawyers asked Shefler to provide additional documents that would prove Jolie and Shefler had planned in secret to exclude him from the negotiations.
