Rob Kardashian vs Blac Chyna LIVE- Revenge porn court trial continues today after judge denies reality star’s settlement | The Sun

BLAC Chyna's revenge porn trial with Rob Kardashian is scheduled to begin today in California.

Chyna, 34, is taking the Keeping Up With The Kardashians alum to court in Los Angeles for sharing graphic images of her online back in 2017 during their previous, volatile relationship.

Earlier this month, Rob's lawyers filed a motion claiming they had reached a settlement agreement ahead of the trial set for today, but she was trying to back out.

During a hearing on June 16, Judge Gregory W Alarcon heard from both Chyna's lawyer, Lynne Ciani, and Rob's counsel, attorneys Todd Eagan and Melissa Lerner, and Chyna's attorney insisted they were still in settlement discussions about two draft agreements.

The judge ruled on Thursday morning to deny Rob's motion to enforce the alleged settlement.

Rob could take the stand during the trial on Monday, which he also did during his family's previous contract interference and defamation case against him and his family.

He claimed she was often abusive during their relationship during his testimony in that case, even alleging that she put a gun to his head, which she denied.

    Why did Blac Chyna sue the Kardashians?

    After Rob & Chyna was put “on hold” back in July of 2017 by E! News, Blac Chyna sued the Kardashians for allegedly interfering with her career in reality TV.

    E! told Variety in 2017 that they plan to “follow the [Kardashian] family’s lead” on what to do next with the spinoff.

    Chyna's attorney, Lynne Ciani, told Us Weekly in a 2020 statement that she would “seek millions in compensatory and punitive damages from Kris [Jenner], Kim [Kardashian], Khloé [Kardashian], and Kylie [Jenner] for defamation, intentional interference with contract, and intentional interference with prospective economic advantage."

    The trial took place in April 2022. Chyna lost the case and was awarded zero damages by a jury.

    Rob Kardashian and Blac Chyna timeline, part three

    Several months later, in October 2017, Chyna sued the Kardashian clan for defamation and intentional interference with her reality TV show.

    In December 2020, the couple agreed to share physical custody of their daughter, Dream, on an alternating weekly schedule.

    Then, in February 2022,  Rob dropped his assault and battery lawsuit against Chyna because his "love for Dream far outweighs my desire to proceed with my claims against her mother in a public trial," he told E! in a statement.

    In March of this year, Chyna alleged she didn’t receive child support from either of her baby daddies, Rob or Tyga.

    And in April 2022, Chyna took the Kardashians to trial over her canceled reality TV show.

    Now, the two are facing off again in court in California.

    Chyna hits back at Rob over settlement

    Blac Chyna hit back at ex Rob Kardashian claiming she rejected a settlement agreement ahead of their revenge porn trial, The Sun exclusively revealed last week.

    Court documents filed in Los Angeles and seen by The Sun revealed Blac Chyna's lawyer, Lynne Ciani, slammed Rob Kardashian's counsel, calling the motion to uphold the alleged settlement "frivolous."

    "Defendant Rob Kardashian desperately seeks to avoid the consequences of the upcoming jury trial for Plaintiff Angela White’s Revenge Porn claim against him," the opposition papers read.

    The attorney insisted Rob should be sanctioned for trying to "enforce" two 'draft settlement agreements' that were never signed by Chyna, whose real name is Angela White.
