The fight continues. Olivia Wilde slammed ex Jason Sudeikis in a new court filing ahead of a Friday, March 24, hearing about their ongoing custody battle.The Don’t Worry Darling director, 39, accused the Saturday Night Live alum, 47, of acting with “underhandedness” and “bad faith” when it comes to the future of son Otis, 8, and daughter Daisy, 6.“Jason should not be permitted to litigate Olivia into debt, and then claim she should be deprived of her right to seek a needs-based fee contribution from him,” Wilde’s legal team wrote in court documents obtained by the Daily Mail. “While the details of Jason’s finances are presently unknown as he refused to substantively respond to basic discovery, she is aware that he is far wealthier than she is.”In order to view the video, please allow Manage CookiesThe Friday hearing is set to determine whether the duo’s legal battle should be adjudicated in New York or California.

Wilde claimed in the court docs that the matter has been settled and Los Angeles is the appropriate venue, but Sudeikis wants the custody hearings to take place in New York.Last year, a judge ruled that the children should stay in California, but the Horrible Bosses actor recently filed a motion to halt that order, which gave him time to file an appeal in New York.

In her declaration, the Booksmart director claimed she was blindsided when she learned about the appeal.“Apparently he had learned that the court date for our first appearance was January 4, 2023, and purposefully did not advise me of it, nor did his lawyer advise my lawyers.

Not knowing the date, neither I nor my lawyers appeared,” she claimed. “[Jason’s] underhandedness and bad faith in these proceedings is astounding.
