My Unorthodox Life star Julia Haart has been dealt another blow in her tumultuous split from ex Silvio Scaglia.
According to the businessman, 63, and his attorney Lanny J. Davis (who also represents his companies), the fashion designer, 50, falsely claimed co-ownership of the talent media company.
“The numbers don’t lie,” Davis said of Haart's reported share, “Mr. Scaglia owns more than 99% of the voting stock – Ms. Haart owns less than .01%. That’s a fact.”
According to the lawyer, Scaglia owns a total of 123,715 shares of Freedom Holding, Inc, the parent company that owns Elite World Group and all its affiliated companies, more than 99% of all voting shares of Freedom, the owner of EWG.
“Thus there should be no doubt that Mr. Scaglia owns EWG and Freedom," Davis noted of his client. The attorney also said that the reality star allegedly only owns 50 shares of common stock in the business compared to the technological entrepreneur's large amount of shares.
