Entertainment TV Ryan Seacrest Can Be Deposed in Blac Chyna's Lawsuit Against the Kardashian Family: Report Blac Chyna has accused the Kardashian family of scheming to get her reality show canceled By Jodi Guglielmi Jodi Guglielmi Instagram Twitter Writer-Reporter, PEOPLE People Editorial Guidelines Published on April 4, 2019 01:13 PM Share Tweet Pin Email Ryan Seacrest could be brought into Blac Chyna‘s ongoing legal battle with the Kardashian family. A judge ruled that Seacrest, an executive producer on Keeping Up with the Kardashians, can be deposed in the case, according to TMZ. According to the website, the judge determined that Seacrest could have “superior and unique” knowledge as to why E! canceled Rob & Chyna, her short-lived reality show with then-fiancé Rob Kardashian. The deposition will reportedly take place during a single day and last for three hours. It will also be recorded on video. Chyna, 30, sued Rob, 32, and his family in October 2017, arguing that she suffered “significant damages” after her ex’s social media rampage that summer, in which he shared graphic and expletive-ridden content about her — including three naked photos — while accusing her of drug/alcohol abuse and infidelity.

In December, a judge granted Chyna a trial date in the case, set for Feb. 3, 2020, with pre-trial depositions of the famous family to take place in the spring of 2019. E! network and Bunim Murray Productions will also have to turn over documents relating to season 2 of Rob & Chyna. Blac Chyna and Rob Kardashian.
