The Buzbee Law firm has since filed a second case, on July 24, against Mr. Brown and the defendants on behalf of Frederick Overpeck, a Dickies Arena staff member after he incurred injuries from allegedly attempting to protect the four fans from Mr. Brown and his entourage.
“Mr. Overpeck, who witnessed the attack, alleges that the first punch was thrown by Chris Brown and that Brown directed the violence that occurred,” Mr. Buzbee exclusively told The Epoch Times.
“Mr. Overpeck is receiving treatment for a cracked vertebrae in his neck and now cannot work. We hope to have the video that captured the violence very soon.
” Live Nation is being accused of failing to ensure the safety of concertgoers, according to the filing. On July 22, the Harris County court entered a temporary restraining order against Mr. Brown, Live Nation, and the Dickies Arena, prohibiting the destruction of video, text messages, and other evidence.
A hearing is set for Aug. 4. “It goes without saying that celebrities have a larger target on their back,” Mr.
Osso said. “Their success is typically broadcast to the general public, and their image is everything, so it’s safe to say that they are susceptible to being victims of a money grab. In a case like this, where physical violence is alleged, we will just have to wait and see what the evidence looks like, ”said Mr.
Osso, an attorney with the Cogdell Law Firm in Houston. The actor and songwriter was diagnosed with bipolar two disorder and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) in 2014. Chris Brown and his associates have not been criminally charged at the time of publication of this article.
