Nick Gordon hit with civil suit
Nick Gordon has been served with a $10 million lawsuit by Bobbi Kristina Brown’s conservators.
The civil action was filed last month and accuses the 19 year old of physically assaulting his girlfriend – who is currently in hospice care after being found unresponsive in her bath last month – and robbing her of thousands of dollars.
In addition, according to People, the papers allege Nick misrepresented himself as Bobbi’s husband in order to control the aspiring singer – the daughter of the late Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown – and limit her contact with other people.
The documents state: »[Gordon] often answered Brown’s personal cell phone, would not allow her to make appointments without his approval, and manipulated her bank relationship so that he could access her money. »
According to the lawsuit, Bobbi Kristina had made plans to meet with an unnamed individual on January 31 – the day she was found unconscious – after previously confiding that her boyfriend »was not the man she thought he was » but never made it to the meeting.
Instead, she »became embroiled in a loud argument » with Nick at her house, which ended with her »face down in a bathtub, with her mouth swollen and another tooth knocked out » before later being diagnosed with »global and irreversible brain damage. »
No criminal charges have been filed against Gordon.
