A California Court of Appeals ruled that Grigorieva, who is a singer, had broken the terms of disclosure when she spoke about the case on The Howard Stern Show in 2013 to discuss Gibson's hostile behaviour, TMZ reports.
As a result, the actor will no longer pay the $500,000 settlement having already paid $250,000 from the agreed sum of $750,000.
According to Us Magazine, Oksana Grigorieva, once had the opportunity to receive a $15m payment, but had turned it down as she thought she could receive more than the amount.

Reports have it that the singer had tried to use a recording of the actor's abusive behaviour to extort money from him.
