Michael Douglas won't have to pay ex-wife for 'Wall Street 2'

Michael Douglas is back in his Oscar-winning role as Gordon Gekko whose iconic "Greed is good" mantra and daring corporate raids made him a rock star of financial titans in the 20th Century Fox movie "Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps."
A judge says New York is no place for Michael Douglas’ ex-wife to try to get at his earnings from his recent “Wall Street” sequel.
A Manhattan judge dismissed Diandra Douglas’ lawsuit in a ruling made public Monday. The judge says it doesn’t belong in a New York court.
Michael and Diandra Douglas divorced in California in 2000 after 23 years together.
Michael Douglas’ lawyer Marilyn Chinitz says he’s very pleased with the ruling.
Diandra Douglas’ lawyer hasn’t responded to inquiries. Her camp has said she should get half his earnings from this year’s “Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps” because their divorce deal gives her a share of proceeds from projects related to work he did when they were married.
The first “Wall Street” film was released in 1987.
