Brad Pitt Reaches $20.5M Settlement with Katrina Victims Over Faulty Homes
“Brad Pitt and his Make It Right Foundation, who were sued in 2018 over shoddy homes they built in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina, settled their lawsuit for $20.5 million. The preliminary settlement, which still needs to be approved by a judge, will be funded by Global Green, an environmental non,” reports Jessica Bennett in Page Six.
“Has agreed to cover the settlement which will rectify the defects on the homes. According to The Times-Picayune/The New Orleans Advocate, the program’s 107 homeowners will be eligible to receive $25,000 each as reimbursement for previous repairs. I am incredibly grateful for Global Green’s willingness to step up and provide.”
