As reported by The Blast, Chyna’s former friend, Justin “Pilot” Jones, served up the lawsuit in 2017, after a picture of him and Chyna kissing had leaked.

He also claimed that they publicly exposed him as a bisexual, before sharing his number with their followers. Jones denied leaking the photo, but could not convince the Kardashian-Chyna fans otherwise, receiving several threatening messages online as a result. Jones claimed his life was “ruined” by the couple and demanded $2 million in damages.

Kardashian and Chyna denied the claims made by Jones and asked the Judge to dismiss the case. The Judge found the evidence was non-conclusive and agreed to drop all but one case. Kardashian requested he be replayed in lawyer fees, but the Judge only ordered Jones to pay Kardashian $45,109.01.
Despite taking a small victory here, Kardashian and Chyna are over custody of their daughter, Dream.
