Ex-Wife Rejects Billionaire Oilman's $975M Personal Check

[Enfuego]

The ex-wife of an oil tycoon rejected a check he wrote for $975 million to settle their divorce.

Continental Resources Inc. CEO Harold Hamm is worth more than $8 billion, according to Forbes. His former wife of 26 years, Sue Ann Arnall, an attorney and former executive at the company, rejected a check that was delivered to her legal team, his attorneys told media outlets Tuesday.

Hamm and Arnall reportedly both appealed the November divorce judgment that awarded her $1 billion. He said he already paid her $20 million during their divorce proceedings over two and a half years.

"Ms. Arnall, through her counsel, stated that they were rejecting the ... payment because Ms. Arnall did not want to risk the dismissal of her appeal by acceptance of the benefits," Hamm's attorney, Michael Burrage, told CNBC.

I read an article on this one. He was a dipshit that got really lucky on some oil and gas leases. He is more akin to a lottery winner than a shrewd businessman.

And, she's a lawyer, by the way. I'm sure she's pretty well-versed in the law and what she deserves under it.

After I found the ABC News story it made me feel a little different. She did work for him. Plus, ABC news reports he is worth 12.9 Billion so maybe 995 Mil isn't as much as it sounded earlier.
Still, what ties up the courts these days makes you go hmmmm?!?! More appeals more $ pissed away.

Looks like the bimbo wised up and cashed the check; absolutely hilarious, she looks about 25 and he looks about 90.
