Shannon Beador is asking a judge to allow her to question Alexis Bellino over her ex-husband's finances. According to court documents obtained by The Blast, the Real Housewives of Orange County star revealed she plans to take an examination of Alexis’ as part of her ongoing legal battle with Jim Bellino.
If you recall, Bellino sued Beador and Tamra Judge for $1 million accusing them of defaming his reputation over comments they made on Heather McDonald's podcast, the Juicy Scoop.
A judge dismissed Beador from the case and was awarded $138,000 in attorney fees. She is attempting to collect her money and trying to figure out Jim’s assets.
Last month, Beador filed a lien against Jim’s $4 million San Juan Capistrano mansion. The lien will allow her to collect the amount she was awarded if the property is sold.
Meanwhile, Bellino has been ordered to appear in court on February 27, according to court documents obtained by The Blast. He will have to bring his financial statements, bank records, and information on his sources of income.
Beador wants to see Bellino's finances to determine how to collect on the debt. The document states if Bellino fails to appear he could be found in contempt of court, which could result in him being thrown in jail.
Last year, Bellino sued Beador and Tamra Judge for defamation over comments they made about his divorce and accused them of defaming his name and businesses when they appeared on a live taping of comedian Heather McDonald's podcast, The Juicy Scoop.
Beador was dismissed from the case and was awarded $137,340.25 in the defamation lawsuit filed against her by Bellino. According to court documents obtained by The Blast, the award will cover Beador’s legal bills.
Also, Bellino filed a lawsuit against McDonald in June 2019. He accused her of defaming him by allowing Tamra Judge Shannon Beador to talk about his divorce from Alexis and his trampoline business and then publishing the allegedly defamatory statements on her podcast.
Jim sued McDonald for damages in excess of $1 million. Meanwhile, Jim is still fighting Judge in court over her “jail” comment.
