The ‘Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ star and her estranged husband had been sued by the families of plane crash victims for allegedly embezzling settlement funds.
Erika Jayne has been dismissed from the fraud and embezzlement lawsuit against her and her estranged husband, Tom Girardi. “Pursuant to stipulation, plaintiff’s claims against defendants EJ Global LLC and Erika Girardi are dismissed without prejudice and without costs,” read legal documents from January 29, according to Page Six. The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star and her husband were accused of misappropriating “at least $2 million in client money” due to the families of the victims of a 2018 Boeing jet crash in Indonesia. HollywoodLife has reached out to Erika’s reps for comment.

In December of that year, Edelson PC, a class action firm, claimed their split was a “sham attempt to fraudulently protect Tom and Erika’s money,” according to court papers. The filing also alleges the pair “are on the verge of financial collapse and locked in a downward spiral of mounting debts and dwindling funds.”
