Not over yet. Blac Chyna‘s lawyer announced that they plan to appeal the verdict in the model’s defamation trial against the Kardashian-Jenner family.“[Based on my reading of the verdict,] the jury found that Chyna [real name Angela White] had not physically abused Rob Kardashian, [and] the jury found that all four defendants had intentionally interfered with her contract with the E!

Network,” Lynne Ciani, the attorney for the Rob & Chyna alum, 33, told the Associated Press on Tuesday, May 3. “We will appeal on the remaining questions.”“On behalf of Kris, Kim, Khloe, and Kylie, we want to express our appreciation to the jury,” the Kardashian family’s counsel, Michael Rhodes and Michelle Doolin, said in a statement to Us Weekly on Tuesday.  “We are also grateful for the steady hand of Judge Gregory Alarcon in making sure that this was a fair trial.

The jury sent a clear message to Ms. White and her lawyer  —  I hope they are listening. Justice has prevailed.”Just ahead of the famous family’s arrival at the Met Gala on Monday, May 2, a judge ruled to dismiss Chyna’s defamation case and ruled that she would not be awarded any damages.Kris Jenner reacted to the jury’s decision on the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, shortly after the news broke. “I’m just happy it’s over,” the momager, 66, told Variety on Monday, explaining that “going through it” was the most difficult part of the ordeal. “I live in my faith and just hope that’s enough.

Yeah, I’m glad it’s over. I’m glad it’s over for the girls. We’re here to celebrate.”Chyna  took legal action against her former fiancé family in 2017 after their spinoff series, Rob & Chyna, was cancelled.
