In documents from May 26, the Martins admitted they “have interests in various types of businesses” and “that financial information is contained on a laptop computer.” But in addition, they revealed, “The laptop also contains … personal photos… which are confidential, privileged, and unrelated to any legitimate interest” of the court, including “confidential communications with other public figures regarding private, non-financial matters.” They said they feared “the risk of disclosing private information not pertinent to the instant case that is highly sought after by tabloid publications”!

One example listed in the documents showing the connection between the Martins and the Smiths surrounded the sale of their Chatsworth, Calif., home, which was reported to be worth up to $2 million. “In late 2014, the Debtors orchestrated a short sale with their mortgage lender whereby a newly created LLC known as Roxe, LLC,” owned by his brother, Michael Martin, and his tax guy Derek Folk “took title to the property,” the trustee claimed. According to the documents, “100% of the short sale price” was “funded by another third party/lender known as ‘Treyball,’ which appears to be owned by Will and Jada Smith.” Indeed, RadarOnline.com viewed California Secretary of State records that show that the agent for Treyball is the Smiths’ trusted financial manager, Todd Gelfand!
