'The Guardian' reports that Jolie filed papers on
Oct.
4 alleging that Pitt was violent toward her and her children on a flight from France to California in 2016.
Jolie also contends that Chateau Miraval negotiations between
her and Pitt fell through because he wanted her to sign , “a nondisclosure agreement that would have contractually prohibited her from speaking outside of court about Pitt’s
physical and emotional abuse of her and their children.”.
Court papers allege that while on the 2016 flight,
“Pitt choked one of the children and struck another in the face” and “grabbed Jolie by the head and shook her.”.
It's also alleged that “he poured beer on Jolie...
he poured beer and red wine on the children.”.
According to Jolie's lawyers, the actor had “gone to great lengths to try to shield their children from reliving the pain Pitt inflicted on the family that day.”.
But when Pitt filed this lawsuit seeking to reassert control over Jolie’s financial life and compel her to rejoin her ex-husband as a frozen-out business partner, Pitt forced
Jolie to publicly defend herself on
these issues for the first time, Angelina Jolie's lawyers, via 'The Guardian'.
Pitt sued Jolie in February, claiming that when she sold her stake in Chateau Miraval, , she “pursued and then consummated the purported sale in secret, purposely keeping Pitt in the dark, and knowingly violating Pitt’s contractual rights.”.
Pitt claims negotiations fell through after Jolie lost a custody dispute.
Jolie maintains that talks ceased after she refused to sign his non-disparagement clause.

California Holds Out on Agreement , to Cut Colorado River Water Use.
'The Guardian' reports that the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation previously called on states that rely on water from the Colorado River to come up with ideas to conserve 2 million to 4 million acre-feet of water.
The mid-August deadline proposed by the bureau lapsed, but some of those states have since reconvened and reached a consensus. .
'The Guardian' reports that six western states have agreed on a plan to dramatically cut use of Colorado River water.
However, California, which has the largest allocation of Colorado River water, is holding out.
State officials say they'll devise their own plan.
California remains focused on practical solutions that can be implemented now to protect volumes of water in storage without driving conflict and litigation, JB Hamby, chair of the Colorado River Board of California, via statement.
But Arizona, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming have decided to work together.
The states wish to raise water levels where reductions
would occur at Lake Mead and Lake Powell, effectively
creating a protective buffer for the reservoirs.
The model would also focus on water accounting
to ensure that water stored in Lake Mead by the
Lower Basin states is available for future use. .
The actions would reportedly result in
2 million acre-feet reductions in the
Lower Basin and smaller cuts in the Upper Basin.
'The Guardian' reports that an acre-foot of water is enough to supply two to three American households each year
