Pitt Challenges Jolie’s Bid to Delay Miraval Trial to November 2027

The timing fight could shape what evidence the jury hears.

Overview

  • The Miraval ownership case is set for trial on February 1, 2027, and Angelina Jolie has asked the court to move it to November 2027.
  • Brad Pitt opposes a nine-month delay and says he would accept only a short continuance of about two months.
  • Pitt warns a longer wait risks losing testimony, citing the death of Jolie’s former business manager Terry Bird and a key lawyer’s reported illness, according to a joint status report.
  • He also claims the dispute has stymied the winery’s operations and limited his use of the French estate, assertions Jolie disputes as lacking evidence.
  • Jolie argues the case is not ready due to complex international discovery, unresolved legal issues, and unfinished depositions, and a source says both sides are trying to agree on a new date as the court has not ruled.
