KYLE SANDILANDS BOMBSHELL: Launches Legal Action Post-$100M Contract Termination By ARN (The Secret Loophole He’s Exploiting!)
Kyle Sandilands has officially commenced legal action in the Federal Court against ARN Media after his $100 million contract was terminated.
ARN Media is the parent company of KIIS FM, which the shock jock has called home for more than a decade where he’s co-hosted The Kyle and Jackie O Show alongside Jackie ‘O’ Henderson.
But their partnership came to an abrupt end after they had a major on-air blow up in February, which led to Jackie leaving the show and Kyle having his contract torn up.
But in an ASX statement published on Monday morning, ARN Media has confirmed Kyle “and his related companies” have commenced legal proceedings against the company.
“The proceedings have been filed in the Federal Court against ARN and Commonwealth Broadcasting Corporation Pty Ltd (CBC), a subsidiary of ARN which is the licence holder for KIIS 106.5 Sydney and contracted with Mr Sandilands and his services company,” the statement added.
“The applicants claim the termination of Mr Sandilands’ contract was invalid on the basis they allege that there was no act of serious misconduct or breach of contract, and that the termination was unconscionable under the Australian Consumer Law.
“The applicants seek an order for specific performance of two contracts, payment of whatever amounts are due and payable under the contracts at the time of judgment, and damages.
“ARN disputes the claims.
“It intends to defend the proceedings. Given the early stage of the matter, ARN is unable to reliably estimate the outcome or any potential financial impact.”
