A Texas judge has told lawyers for an Australian woman to set aside $10 million for a former business partner who says she was cheated out of her share of the sale of the rights to the best-selling "Fifty Shades Trilogy." State District Judge Susan McCoy said Wednesday that she wants the money deposited in a court registry by Sept. 25 as attorneys seek to negotiate a judgment amount for Jennifer Pedroza.
