法官裁定，美國(guó)女歌手Lady Gaga無(wú)需向綁架狗同謀支付50萬(wàn)美元的賞金

Lady Gaga received some pawesome news Monday: A Los Angeles judge has again ruled in her favor, declaring that she does not need to pay Jennifer McBride — a woman tied to the violent Feb. 2021 kidnapping of the star's two dogs — the $500,000 reward money that was offered at the time of the incident.
Lady Gaga周一收到了一些令人震驚的消息：洛杉磯一名法官再次做出有利于她的裁決，宣布她不需要支付Jennifer McBride的費(fèi)用。2021年，這位明星的兩只狗被綁架，事件發(fā)生時(shí)懸賞50萬(wàn)美元。

The news comes after Judge Holly J. Fujie first paused the breach of contract suit in July, after McBride sued Gaga in February for not paying her the reward money for the dogs' safe return. However, Fujie did give McBride a 20-day leave to amend and refile the lawsuit, which alleged that Gaga made the offer "with the intent to defraud and induce members of the public, such as Plaintiff, to rely upon it and to act upon said promise by locating and delivering Lady Gaga's bulldogs to Defendants."
這一消息是在法官Holly J.Fujie于7月首次暫停違約訴訟后發(fā)布的。此前，McBride于2月起訴Gaga，稱其沒有支付狗狗安全返回的獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)金。然而，F(xiàn)ujie確實(shí)給了McBride 20天的假期來(lái)修改和重新提起訴訟，該訴訟指控Gaga提出這一提議“意圖欺詐和誘導(dǎo)公眾（如原告）依賴它，并按照上述承諾行事，找到Lady Gaga的斗牛犬并將其交給被告。”

Per PEOPLE, Fujie said in her court order in July that McBride's suit against Gaga was "legally insufficient in its entirety" due to McBride's "involvement in the theft," and since McBride was indicted and pleaded no contest to charges of receiving stolen property in 2022, was therefore "not entitled to thereafter benefit from their wrongdoing by seeking to enforce the contract."
據(jù)《人物》雜志報(bào)道，F(xiàn)ujie在7月的法庭命令中表示，由于McBride“參與了盜竊”，McBride對(duì)Gaga的訴訟“在法律上完全不充分”，而且McBride被起訴，對(duì)2022年收受被盜財(cái)產(chǎn)的指控沒有抗辯，因此“此后無(wú)權(quán)通過尋求執(zhí)行合同從他們的不法行為中獲益”。

McBride tried to argue in her amendment that she wasn't involved in the actual theft and only took possession of the dogs to return them, but now, as PEOPLE reports, the court "finds that nothing alleged in the [first amended complaint] changes" its earlier conclusion, and because the judge will not allow McBride another revised complaint, the case is now closed.
麥克布賴德試圖在她的修正案中辯稱，她沒有參與實(shí)際的盜竊，只是為了歸還這些狗而占有了這些狗，但現(xiàn)在，正如《人物》雜志報(bào)道的那樣，法院“發(fā)現(xiàn)（第一次修正的申訴）中所稱的任何內(nèi)容都沒有改變”其早期結(jié)論，由于法官不會(huì)允許麥克布賴德再次修正申訴，該案現(xiàn)已結(jié)案。

McBride was one of five people arrested in 2021 in connection with the dognapping and shooting of dogwalker Ryan Fischer. James Howard Jackson, who shot Fischer before stealing dogs Koji and Gustav, pleaded no contest to one count of attempted murder and was sentenced to 21 years in prison.
麥克布賴德是2021年因綁架和槍殺遛狗者瑞安·菲舍爾而被捕的五人之一。詹姆斯·霍華德·杰克遜在偷狗Koji和Gustav之前槍殺了Fischer，他對(duì)一項(xiàng)謀殺未遂指控不認(rèn)罪，被判處21年監(jiān)禁。

Though McBride did not participate in the actual kidnapping or shooting, she was arrested in 2021 and charged with one count of being an accessory after the fact to attempted murder, and one count for receiving stolen property. She was not convicted on the former charge, but was ultimately sentenced to two years probation after pleading no contest to the charge of receiving stolen property.
盡管麥克布賴德沒有參與實(shí)際的綁架或槍擊，但她于2021年被捕，并被控一項(xiàng)謀殺未遂后從犯罪和一項(xiàng)收受贓物罪。她沒有因前一項(xiàng)指控而被定罪，但在對(duì)收受贓物的指控沒有抗辯后，最終被判處兩年緩刑。
