Jennifer Lopez Wins a Half Million Dollar Lawsuit

In another case of the rich get richer, Jennifer Lopez was awarded almost $545,000 in a lawsuit against her first husband over his plans to publish a tell-all book claiming she had several affairs.

A court-ordered arbitrator made the decision in April in Lopez’s breach-of-contract suit against Ojani Noa, court papers filed Monday indicated. The figure includes only $200,000 in damages, with the rest going for arbitration costs and attorney’s fees.

Lopez’s suit claimed that Noa had violated a previous lawsuit settlement preventing him from revealing private information about their relationship.

The arbitrator also decided that a permanent injunction should be awarded against Noa that would bar him from “criticizing, denigrating, casting in a negative light or otherwise disparaging or causing disparagement” to Lopez.

The book makes claims of many affairs, including one with Marc Anthony, while J. Lo claimed that Noa offered not to publish the book in return for $5 million. Why didn’t the guy just tell his story to someone else, who could then write the ‘unauthorized biography’ on Jennifer Lopez? Noa, have your people call my people and we’ll talk.
