The ex-wife of international gun mogul Gaston Glock Sr. may use more than 500,000 documents she secured from her former husband’s North American operations in Georgia during their contentious Austrian divorce as evidence in her racketeering suit against him, the federal appeals court in Atlanta has ruled.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit overturned a federal trial court judge in Atlanta who had stopped Helga Glock from using the evidence, which detailed the financial operations of the Georgia headquarters, in the racketeering case. The trial judge had held that a law allowing Helga Glock to subpoena the documents for her divorce case in Austria did not allow her to use them in a subsequent case in the United States.
