Witnesses heard in million-dollar feud between Derek Ogilvie and RTL | Entertainment

entertainment">Ogilvie (55) and RTL have been at odds with each other for years about the proceeds of theater shows from 2008 to 2016. Ogilvie demands 3.8 million euros from RTL. He said he was entitled to 62.5 percent of the gross proceeds from the shows. This is stated in the contract that was concluded at the end of 2008, he says. RTL paid him on the basis of net proceeds: after deduction of all costs.

entertainment">In 2018, the court awarded more than 100,000 euros to Ogilvie, who appealed. At the beginning of this year, both parties appeared before the court. That concluded at the end of March that it seems that RTL has acted correctly. The judges do not consider it plausible that RTL would have entered into a partnership in which Ogilvie does not share in the costs. In addition, Ogilvie would not have protested the payments in those years.

Witnesses

entertainment">Ogilvie was allowed by the court to provide additional evidence. The three witnesses were heard on Monday at his request. In addition to the medium itself, two of his business advisers spoke. They also stated that the gross proceeds would be used to pay. The court has honored two more witness requests. It is not known when they will be heard. RTL’s lawyers announced that, after those hearings, they probably also put forward two more involved parties.

entertainment">Ogilvie and RTL made television programs such as Baby’s will is wet in The Ghost Whisperer. In 2008 the theater shows were added.
