'Trustee has done no legwork' – Erika Jayne gets a win in court over earring debacle

Erika Jayne, from the 'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills', has scored a victory in court over her diamonds. The much-contended earrings have made headlines over the past few years in what seems like an endless debacle.

A Glimmer of Chance Amidst the Shadows

As reported by 'Reality Tea', Jayne's estranged husband, Thomas Girardi, was embroiled in several lawsuits in 2020 and even faced arrest for purported embezzlement from his clients. Consequently, this string of events led some to cast a suspicious eye towards Jayne, wondering if she was a silent partner in these alleged nefarious activities.

Post his disgrace and subsequent legal woes, a bankruptcy trustee began scrutinising Girardi's law firm to recoup the purported millions of dollars sent through illegal channels. Among these unlawful purchases, were these infamous earrings, which landed Jayne in a bit of a pickle.

Earring Appeal – The Plot Thickens

But it seems the tide is turning. Erika Jayne won her appeal claim concerning the auctioned diamond earrings. She argued they were not part of the bankruptcy estate. 

Emily D. Baker, a self-proclaimed legal analyst specialising in entertainment, shed light on this on Twitter, presenting a snapshot of the court’s revised order. The order states, “The Trustee has done no legwork here to show the funds were commingled.”

The court decided in favor of Jayne, asserting the earrings were not part of the bankrupt estate property, hence should not have been turned over to the bankruptcy trustee.

The case gets a taste of irony - one Twitter user pointed out that Ronald Richards, a 'Housewives' super fan, might have to return the earrings, purchased at the auction by his wife, back to Jayne. The user quipped, 'Surely it would be easier for the bankruptcy court to return 250k to him than 759k to Erika.'

'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' fans, the story continues! The drama-loaded show is set to return to Bravo in November 2023. So, stay tuned and keep asking: "Does Erika Jayne deserve the earrings?" and "Has this drama outlived its lifetime?"
