Kevin Costner's complicated divorce proceedings with estranged wife Christine Baumgartner continued this week, as the star requested that his ex pay him $100,000 in legal fees related to their ongoing court battle.In legal documents obtained by ET and filed on Thursday, Christine asked the court to deny Kevin's request to pay $100,000 of his legal fees, claiming he wouldn't have incurred them if she had moved out of the Southern California home — which has been a major point of contention in the couple's messy divorce — in a timely manner.Christine argues that Kevin could have avoided the legal fees by simply waiting for their pre-determined November court date, rather than filing an additional motion in July, requesting that she move out of their house earlier than Aug.
31, a date Christine had previously agreed to. A hearing on the legal fees has been scheduled for Aug. 2 in Santa Barbara.Christine filed for divorce on May 1 after 18 years of marriage.
According to court documents obtained by ET, Christine cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for the dissolution of the marriage, and she listed April 11 as the date of separation.After she filed for divorce, Kevin responded with his own legal documents, saying he also wanted joint custody of their children and that they have a prenuptial agreement.
