Richard Mellon Scaife Lawsuit


Billionaire divorce lawsuit ends in a $725,000 a month settlement.


Richard Mellon Scaife

Pittsburgh, PA: (Sep-16-07) Margaret Ritchie Battle Scaife, the estranged wife of billionaire and newspaper owner Richard Mellon Scaife, filed for divorce accusing her banking heir turned media mogul husband of infidelity. Sources stated that the couple did not have a prenuptial agreement. Richard Mellon Scaife has two children from his first marriage to the former Frances Gilmore. Reports claim that Scaife, 75, and his second wife, Margaret, battled on several fronts, from how to assess and divide his wealth to custody of a yellow Labrador retriever named Beauregard. Margaret, 60, kept a separate residence in Pittsburgh after the couple married in June 1991 and has been arrested twice since their split over domestic confrontations at his nearby mansion. The trespass and assault charges were later dismissed. Forbes magazine estimated that Scaife's wealth was $1.2 billion in 2007, ranking him No. 799 on its list of the world's billionaires. In a divorce settlement reached, Margaret was awarded a $725,000 a month in temporary support that will be paid out during the course of the acrimonious divorce. Margaret's alimony could get bigger depending on how Judge Alan Hertzberg views her husband's income. [EDITOR AND PUBLISHER: INFIDELITY DIVORCE]
