Kris Humphries refuses Monetary settlement from Kim

The Legal team representing Kris Humphries in the divorce proceeding with estranged wife has said the basketball star is not interested in any of Kim Kardashian‘s fortune or any divorce settlement.

The couple signed a pre-nuptial agreement on how to divide their assets in case of a divorce. But Kim is said to have offered him a financial settlement in order to get their divorce completed as soon as possible.
Kris is said to have stood his grounds that he doesn’t want any money and is determined to pursue his claim to have the divorce granted on the grounds of fraud, arguing that he and Kim married under false pretenses.

According to RadarOnline, ‘There have been informal settlement talks going on between Kim and Kris’s respective lawyers. Team Humphries has made it crystal clear though that Kris isn’t seeking any money from Kim. Kris doesn’t want one penny from her.
His lawyers have said the only terms acceptable for a settlement would be if Kim agrees to Kris’ contention that the marriage was a fraud.
There is a stand-off at this point because Kim will never agree to that, she says the marriage wasn’t a fraud. It just didn’t work out.’
Kris’s lawyers are studying a video footage from reality show Kourtney and Kim Take New York as an emotional discussion between Kim and her mother Kris Jenner about the marriage is alleged to have taken place on a soundstage in December, two months later than claimed in the show.
Kris’s legal team are said to feel this strengthens their claim for the marriage being a fraud.

A source told the website: ‘Kris feels that if this is true and the whole conversation was faked, this would help prove that he got married under fraudulent circumstances.

‘Yes, this did occur after the marriage, but this is one clear example that could help sway the judge to grant the divorce on the grounds of fraud.’

Kim is said to be keen on having the marriage legally ended as soon as possible and plans to request that the proceedings are held in private.
“A public trial is the last thing that Kim wants, and she has instructed her lawyer to formally petition the court so that the divorce can be heard by a mediator, which is routinely done in California, since it’s a no-fault state.
Kim doesn’t want a long drawn out trial. She wants the mediation to be private, confidential, and legally binding.”
