Feel badly for her. First she had to take the studio to court over Black Widow and now this.

I don't really. It isn't good these thanga happen, but it's not like she needs to do anything. She just pays her lawyers a small portion of her fortune and she gets more money. I feel bad for the people who actually need the work getting screwed, which this will hopefully set a precedent for.
