BET Network Pushing For A Chris Brown Reality Show Seeking A Tell All About His Time In Jail

    
R&B singer Chris Brown is the recipient of a massive amount of legal bills over issues all stemming from the 2009 Rihanna case, regarding a domestic dispute with his ex-girlfriend. Due to the fact Brown is on probation it has made him a target for some seeking a quick buck. He’s been confronted by people trying to provoke fights, looking for a big payday and it is hitting Brown in the pockets. 

 
The BET network (Black Entertainment Television) is pushing for a reality show with Brown, which would chronicle his post-jail troubles and financially compensate him in the process, which would help offset his ever mounting legal fees. It would also feature his girlfriend, model Karrueche Tran, who has stuck with him through his troubles. Thus far Brown has not taken BET up on their offer, but they seek to gain programming which could compete with “Love And Hip Hop Atlanta” and deem a show with the singer as a means to do so.

Chris Brown Sued For $3,000,000 By Man In Washington Case That Revoked His Probation In Los Angeles

Chris Brown and lawyer Mark Geragos

Yesterday, R&B singer Chris Brown, 24, was sued by Parker Adams, the 20-year-old man the crooner accused of trying to trespass on his tour bus in Washington, DC, which resulted in a altercation. Adams, who had followed Brown from a night club venue, photobombed the singer, while he was taking a picture with two female fans.

Reports indicate, initially, Adams stated to police that Brown did not hit him. However, according to Brown's attorney Mark Geragos, the police report was changed to state the singer hit Adams. TMZ stated a secret service agent who heard Adams complain to police, did state Brown did not hit him. This still has not stopped Adams from suing Brown and his bodyguard, Chris Hollosy, for $3,000,000.


Adams followed Brown from the club to start trouble and he got his wish. Four days ago, before this current case was filed, the Judiciary Report stated Brown needs lawsuit insurance, as mounting legal fees could bankrupt him [Chris Brown's Laywer Says Man Suing Over Basketball Court Fight Admitted The Singer Never Touched Him (Does Brown Need Insurance)]. This new lawsuit, the biggest one yet, is more proof of that.

Chris Brown's Lawyer Says Man Suing Over Basketball Court Fight Admitted The Singer Never Touched Him (Does Brown Need Insurance)


Chris Brown and Karrueche Tran

TMZ is reporting an attorney at the offices of lawyer Mark Geragos, who represents Chris Brown in various legal matters, stated Malcolm Ausbon, who is suing the singer for assault, over a basketball court fight that occurred outside 24-Hour Fitness, stated their client never touched him during the fracas. However, Ausbon has filed a lawsuit suing Brown for $250,000, stating he and three members of his entourage beat him up on the basketball court, resulting in grievous bodily injury, for which he had to seek medical treatment. 


Chris Brown and his lawyer Mark Geragos

Brown's lawyers are stating they are being "extorted" by Ausbon, who is threatening to file assault charges with the police if Brown does not pay him. When a person is assaulted, the first thing they should do is report it to the police, not file a lawsuit. Generally, legal actions in civil court are brought after criminal proceedings (or when criminal cases fail). Furthermore, if someone assaulted me, my mindset is there's no amount of money that would make me not press charges. When people reverse the order and not file a police report first, people tend to cast aspersions on the assault claims being made, as it looks like a cash grab. 


Brown has been sued in two other cases for assault, where the evidence pointed to the fact he had no physical contact with those making the claim or did not initiate the fight. Brown could have benefited from lawsuit insurance, because since the time of the Rihanna domestic violence incident, people are filing lawsuits against him left, right and center, absent of evidence of assault by the singer. Brown is racking up massive legal fees trying to defend all these cases that could bankrupt him, because it seems every few months, a new lawsuit is filed against him. The floodgates have opened.

Judge Slaps Woman With $10,000 Fine For Lying In Stating Michael Jordan Is The Father Of Her Son

 

Michael Jordan

Well, this case got ugly really fast. A judge just slapped sex instructor, Pamela Smith, with a $10,000 fine for "lying" regarding the paternity of her son, Taj, via claiming in court papers his dad is basketball legend Michael Jordan. Smith sued Jordan for paternity. However, years ago paternity was established with Smith's ex-husband named as the father on the young man's birth certificate. Smith withdrew the lawsuit, then the judge dismissed it without prejudice, meaning it can be filed again.



Pamela Smith failed to compel the court to order Jordan to take a paternity test, as she hired a publicist, before a lawyer, which didn't look right. 
 
Jordan strenuously denied the claims and hired an attorney to counter them in court. When it was revealed Smith recently tried to remove her ex-husband's name from 27-year-old Taj's birth certificate, Jordan's lawyers entered the evidence into the court record. This resulted in the judge hitting her with a $10,000 fine to cover Jordan's legal fees and labeling her a liar for hiring a publicist before an attorney.


Taj changed his last name to Jordan

It is not currently known if Smith was paid by any publications for her story, as a number of bloggers reported turning her down when she sought to drum up press for it. Therefore, if she wasn't paid a tell-all fee and now has to pay $10,000 in legal fees to Jordan, she is up a creek.

 
Pamela Smith and Michael Jordan

I don't understand why any woman would point the finger at the wrong man regarding paternity. Though I do not live that way, in my estimation, it would be embarrassing enough to publicly admit one does not even know who the father of one's child is, due to the number of people in one's bed, but to guess and guess wrong...oh dear. That's embarrassing.



Taj Jordan and Michael Jordan

Most women don't want to be publicly disgraced like that - sexing so many people you don't know who the daddy is, isn't something to be proud of or "shout from the rooftops" as the phrase goes. Once again, as the Judiciary Report has repeatedly stated in the past, all publicity is not good publicity.


 
Ralph Hall

Side Bar:
while we're on the subject, I'd just like to announce I've been dating 90-year-old Texas congressman Ralph Hall and I am going to have his baby (never mind I'm not pregnant). I'm his Anna Nicole Smith, but you know, black. You rocked my world sweet thing and I want the whole country to know it. What happens in Vegas Washington, doesn't stay in Washington. Just kidding (no disrespect intended to the congressman). But see, anybody can make up a story about anyone. Proving it is another story.

Chris Brown Challenging Hollywood Hills In What Could Be A Costly Legal Battle


Chris Brown

Chris Brown is challenging the government of the city of Hollywood regarding the graffiti he sprayed on the outside wall of his mansion. Brown is citing the First Amendment as grounds for the graffiti to remain. However, the city is still labeling it a code violation they want removed and have assessed fines to the property.


The fines will continue to accrue until Brown removes the graffiti or a court order issued stating it can remain. Either way, this could get costly for Brown if it spirals into a full blown court battle. At the end of the day, one has to choose one's battles carefully and this one isn't worth the time and money.

IRS Says Sorry For Targeting Conservatives As Obama Denies All Knowledge Of Misconduct (Video)


This is a follow up to a scandal the Judiciary Report broke first on August 11, 2011 (The FBI And Ethics) regarding the Internal Revenue Service (I.R.S.) and the Obama Administration targeting politically outspoken conservatives, such as myself, especially those with an online presence (like myself). On Friday, May 10, 2013, Republican senator, Mitch McConnell, confirmed that the I.R.S. has been politically targeting conservatives via their tax filings (Congressional Senator Confirms The IRS Politically Targeted Conservatives Just As The Site Stated).  

On Saturday May 11, 2013, the I.R.S. publicly admitted and apologized for the misconduct. The Inspector General is currently investigating the I.R.S. in this matter. The site has been proven right again, as everything I have stated on the Judiciary Report (and all its affiliated sites) are true and correct. I have no reason to lie.

Today, U.S. President Barack Obama addressed the scandal and completely distanced himself from it, stating he did not know about it until this past Friday when it hit the news. The Obama Administration's F.B.I. and I.R.S. worked hand in hand in targeting outspoken conservatives like myself, who "criticize the government" and tried to teach the American people about "constitutional rights" - which you, my faithful readers, know is something I have repeatedly done through my columns for the past few years.


As stated in this past Saturday's column, my issues with the I.R.S. have been resolved. However, I was very offended when the problem occurred, then escalated last year, as my mom called me from Miami when I was in London, England for a few months on business and read over the phone, to borrow from the president, an "outrageous" letter from the I.R.S, containing claims that were completely and utterly false. I don't like people playing with my name. On a matter of principle, I countered everything and stuck with it until there was a proper resolution.

As stated in Saturday's column, the I.R.S. stated in writing they are "retracting" their previous claims and the agency and I are on decent terms now. However, some conservatives are reporting they are out large sums of money in legal fees. Said conservative groups and individuals announced today they are contemplating seeking reimbursement from the I.R.S.

George Zimmerman's Website Is Not Doing Him Any Favors In The Trayvon Martin Case

Ambiguous Site Begging For Money Creates More Questions Than Answers

Trayvon Martin and relative

In a desperate bid to address the enormous amount of public anger being directed at him, George Zimmerman, the man that murdered unarmed 17-year-old Trayvon Martin, in a race based killing, has launched a website that is not helping his cause (http://therealgeorgezimmerman.com).

The pages of the site are titled "The Real George Zimmerman" "My Race" "The Facts" and "Contact." Zimmerman is begging for money online to support his family and for his legal case. Under the circumstances it is inappropriate. Profiting from crime is wrong.

Under the "My Race" page it states, "'The world is my country, all mankind are my brethren, and to do good is my religion.' - Thomas Paine." That does not answer the question he posed, as some have inquired on his ethnic background, due to the circumstances surrounding the case.

Zimmerman's dad is white and his mother Hispanic. The main reason race has come up in this murder is squarely due to Zimmerman. He made so many calls to 911 reporting individuals he labeled suspicious black males, one even as young as age 7, indicating blatant racial profiling. Zimmerman is also heard using the slur "f*cking coons" on the 911 tape.

George Zimmerman

Zimmerman asserts "I assure you the facts will come to light." No set of facts will explain Zimmerman stalking and confronting Martin, in an incident that ended in murder. Zimmerman started and caused this tragic incident. Zimmerman is heard on the 911 tapes breathing heavily as he ran after Martin, who was a scared kid trying to get away from the "crazy" and "creepy" man following him around on a rainy night, which sadly would be his last on earth.

Under the "album" page, Zimmerman posts photos of graffiti laden walls bearing support for him, by people who have broken the law in defacing others' property. In one incident, pro-Zimmerman statements were spray painted on community center in an African-American neighborhood to cause distress.

Zimmerman complains on the site, "As a result of the incident and subsequent media coverage, I have been forced to leave my home, my school, my employer, my family and ultimately, my entire life." However, Martin lost his life. There's no comparing who suffered the greater injury. Furthermore, this situation is of Zimmerman's own making. He cannot complain.

I believe had Martin survived the shooting, he would have labeled Zimmerman a criminal and a liar, professing he did not do anything to him on that fateful night.

Zimmerman had no authority under the law to stalk, confront, harass and or murder anyone, as he did to Martin. This entire crime and the fall out thereof is squarely Zimmerman's fault and he continues to perpetuate lies to defend the indefensible that has already cost others their lives, as it was reported three African-Americans were killed by two gunmen in support of Zimmerman.

It is time for Zimmerman to confess to God and the Martin family, asking both for forgiveness. Stop the charade and cover up.

The public also needs to keep its cool and not become enraged to the point people commit acts of violence, as has been seen in incidents against blacks, whites and Hispanics over the past couple weeks. Stop turning on each other. Things must not escalate out of control, because once that fire is lit, it will rage unchecked for a time doing significant damage. This is not the answer.

Former B2K child star, Lil Fizz, real name Dreux Pierre Frederic (are you French, boo) aged 25, has run afoul of the law, via an illegal marijuana shop he has been part owner of in Los Angeles for well over three years. The name of the pot shop is "Little Amsterdam" and the State of California is suing to have the place closed down. They are also demanding $1.2 million dollars in fines from the owners, in addition to $750,000 in state fees to cover the government's cost in bringing the case.
