WTH is this real?  That figure is preposterous.  These ridiculous legal matters are onerous and waste of resources.     

Nikon D300 24-70mm f2.8
70-200mm f2.8
50mm f1.4 & 50mm f1.8
105mm f2.8
2 SB800

I know, legal is most likely going super high for tabloids.  Not to mention, they most likely after something like $100 million.

Getty was obviously in the wrong, but a billion dollars is a bit much.
