"A Georgia federal judge ruled in Zac's favor last week ... finding Kelly Yazdi breached her employment contract by taking and retaining more than 170 confidential business emails and files possibly containing info the judge said she could use to publicly attack Zac," TMZ reported.
The couple originally married in August, 2023. However, the couple didn't last long, with their separation being confirmed December of the same year. When speaking with TMZ, Brown's attorney issued a statement regarding the ruling.
"The evidence at trial showed that Ms. Yazdi betrayed Zac's trust, took critical confidential information that didn't belong to her, and used it to attack him publicly for her own gain," Beckworth told TMZ. "The permanent injunction should put an end to it."
This is unlikely to be the last we hear of Brown and Yadzi's court battles. There's clearly some bad blood on both sides, and these court battles will be adding further fuel to the fire.
