RHOBH’s Erika Jayne DISMISSED from $2m fraud lawsuit after star & ex Tom Girardi were accused of ‘stealing from orphans’

“Pursuant to stipulation, plaintiff’s claims against defendants EJ Global LLC and Erika Girardi are dismissed without prejudice and without costs,” the Saturday, January 29 court documents announced.

The reality star was previously named beside her ex-husband for embezzling $2 million in settlement funds from the families of Lion Air Flight 610 crash victims, in December of 2020.

The Trustee on the case claimed that Erika had "prior knowledge" of the fraud as her ex-husband's firm had been covering her expenses for 12 years.

However, the TV personality continually asserted that she had no insight regarding Tom's wrongdoings.

SENTIMENTAL VALUE?

The news of the singer's dismissal followed her refusal to hand over $1.4M diamond earrings from her ex Tom Girardi to authorities earlier this week.

According to court documents obtained by , Erika denied requests to hand over the pair of diamond earrings Tom, 82, bought for her during their marriage.

The attorney investigating Tom’s ongoing bankruptcy case believes the disgraced lawyer purchased the earrings with money stolen from his clients.

The court has named a trustee to take control of Tom’s finances, while they must also find a way to pay back his alleged victims.

According to the outlet, the trustee has been looking over Tom’s bank statements and financial records.

It was recently revealed that Tom purchased the $750k diamond earrings for the RHOBH star with funds from his law firm’s client trust account.

The earrings, which were purchased from M&M jewelers, are now worth approximately $1.4 million.

The legal documents stated that Tom allegedly hid the theft from the client's trust by “describing the purpose of the check” as a “cost” item in relation to one of his previous lawsuits.

The document read: "Erika has no legal or equitable right to the Diamond Earrings and the same are legally and equitably valuable assets of the GK Bankruptcy Estate that the Trustee can and should sell."

While the trustee claims they demanded Erika return the pricey earrings, the TV personality has refused to comply.

The court has now been asked to order the RHOBH star to hand over the jewelry within five days.

She has also been prohibited from selling the earrings or giving them to someone else.

As of Wednesday morning, Erika had yet to respond to the court’s request.

TOM'S STRUGGLES

Meanwhile, Tom is unable to answer for himself as he is currently under conservatorship rules by his brother.

The former lawyer’s family has said he suffers from dementia, while he has moved into a senior living facility amid the legal scandal.

END OF AN ERA

The latest finding in the bankruptcy lawsuit comes after Erika claimed she's "broke" following the legal issues and her split from Tom.

Erika confessed her financial struggles on an episode of RHOBH after she was sued for $25 million in Tom's fraud case.

During the episode, Erika admitted that she currently has "zero dollars" to her name.
