Overview
- Los Angeles Superior Court records show Michaels filed on Oct. 17 to dismiss his July civil complaint without prejudice.
- Michaels had alleged Geffen promised lifelong financial support and initially paid for sex, claims Geffen’s lawyer has flatly denied as baseless.
- Attorney Bryan Freedman says financial issues will be addressed in mediation, which typically focuses on spousal support and community property.
- The pair married in March 2023 with no prenuptial agreement, separated on Feb. 22, 2025, and Geffen filed for divorce on May 16.
- Reports indicate Geffen has paid Michaels $200,000 since the split and is covering $15,000 in monthly rent, with spousal support duration likely limited by the short marriage under California norms.
