The legal battle between Jesse Williams<\/a><\/strong> and Aryn Drake-Lee<\/strong> continues to make headlines.<\/p>\n

It’s been two years since the Grey’s Anatomy<\/em> star filed for divorce<\/a> from Drake-Lee. The exes, who tied the knot in 2012, share kids Maceo<\/strong>, 3, and Sadie<\/strong>, 5. Since their split, Williams and Drake-Lee have been battling it out in court, with Drake-Lee’s lawyers recently filing a request for attorney’s fees<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In documents obtained by E! News earlier this month, Drake-Lee requested that the court order Williams pay her lawyer $100,000. Additionally, Drake-Lee requested the court order Williams to pay $110,000 for the forensic accounting in their ongoing case.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Now, Williams has responded to Drake-Lee’s request in a court filing of his own. The 37-year-old star’s attorneys filed an objection in Los Angeles court this week, asking the court to deny Drake-Lee’s request.<\/p>\n

In the documents, obtained by E! News, it’s stated that Williams has already paid $270,000 towards Drake-Lee’s attorney’s fees and costs. Then, in additional documents obtained by The Blast<\/a><\/em>, Williams states that the court should “send Aryn a message” that she too is “responsible” to pay for her attorney’s fees and that “this is not a free ride.”<\/p>\n

“Aryn has been able to avoid seeking meaningful employment, preferring instead to comfortably live off her substantial support,” the document states.<\/p>\n

A trial is expected to take place later this year.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
