Photo Rights

Greg Norman's ex-wife is asking the courts here in Florida to enter an order demanding that Mr. Norman turn over all documents which pertain to monies that he received from the sale of the photos from his wedding to Chris Evert. While I am sure that any monies he received are non-marital in nature, what I'm not sure about is whether Norman's ex-wife is entitled to that information. Norman's lawyer seems to think that its harassment and an invasion of his privacy, but is he right? The much publicized divorce between Norman and his wife made his marriage to Chris Evert much more news worthy. Therefore, perhaps the ex-wife has a right to the information and possibly a civil suit against the Great White Shark in order to receive some of the proceeds from the sale of the photos. I think its a long shot and also believe that sometimes people fight for the sake of fighting even when there are no merits to their claims, it'll be interesting to hear how a Judge will rule on this issue and whether Norman's ex-wife seeks any type of financial payout for the information she receives.

I think that Greg Norman’s ex-wife sounds like a woman scorned. But I’d be interested to hear what the judge has to say about it.
