Summary
Welcome back, Legal Team! This week, we’re diving right back into the court proceedings between Real Housewives of New Jersey's Luis Ruelas and ex-fiancé Vanessa Reiser. In the last episode, we covered Luis' Affidavit, and in this juicy 2-part episode (yes, you read that right!) we're covering the case from Vanessa's perspective.
But first, if you haven’t listened to Luis’ side yet, we highly recommend you do so. Get caught up here!
What’s on the docket?
- Returning the engagement ring and the law supporting Luis' request
- Heart Balm Actions: What it means, what states allow it, and which have abolished it
- The temporary order filed against Vanessa by the court on behalf of Luis in April of 2020
- Details of the complaint filed against Luis by Vanessa in May of 2020
- Vanessa’s POV on their relationship, claims of narcissistic behavior, admissions, text messages, emails, letters, and everything in between.

| 0:35.7 | Before you dive into this episode, we want to note that this second part episode is actually split into two separate episodes. |
| 0:38.9 | That is because we started recording. We're about 30 minutes of the way in and we realized, oh no, we haven't even scratched the surface. So this episode |
| 0:44.8 | ended up being two hours long and we decided to split it into two separate episodes. |
| 0:49.2 | But it is still just part two of this series on the Louie lawsuit. Part one was his side. This part two, |

| 1:21.7 | Anything to add before we dive in? |
| 1:23.7 | No, but if you haven't listened to our previous episode on these legal proceedings between Louie and his ex, then listen to that first because you really missed out if you didn't listen to that one. |
| 1:36.6 | Yeah, that's required reading. |

| 1:41.7 | All right, so before we dive in, let's talk about the law that's |
| 1:44.8 | involved here. And this is something we've been asked about a lot is when you have to return |
| 1:51.3 | an engagement ring if the wedding doesn't happen or if the wedding gets called off a la |
