McCourt divorce trial opens in Los Angeles

By Richard Binder

ADVERTISEMENTS

The contentious divorce trial of Frank and Jamie McCourt opened in a downtown Los Angeles courtroom on Monday.

Attorneys for the parties hauled more than 20 boxes of documents and dozens more binders of exhibits into a packed courtroom where Los Angeles County, Calif., Superior Court Judge Scott M. Gordon is presiding over the case. Dennis Wasser of Wasser, Cooperman & Carter led a team of five attorneys on behalf of Jamie McCourt; six lawyers appeared for Frank McCourt, including Stephen Susman, a partner at Houston's Susman Godfrey.

The trial could hinge on a point made by Susman when he said former family law attorney Jamie McCourt was attempting to become "the first successful spouse to invalidate an agreement that she proposed" and the "first divorce lawyer to claim she did not understand her own post-nuptial agreement."

Control of the Los Angeles Dodgers could rest on the outcome of the case.
