In a significant legal development, R&B artist Chris Brown was found liable for $12.9 million in a lawsuit stemming from a severe dog attack. The case involves a victim who suffered extensive injuries, including permanent facial disfigurement and vision loss, after an incident in December 2020.
The attack occurred at Brown's Tarzana, California home when his Caucasian shepherd, Hades, allegedly mauled the victim. Jurors determined Brown and his company, Black Pyramid LLC, owed $12.9 million for the victim's physical and emotional suffering and medical expenses. Additional compensation was awarded to the victim's sister and husband.
Recently, a Los Angeles judge denied Brown's request for an additional month to disclose his income sources to the court. Brown's legal team had argued that the request was overly broad, but the judge rejected this challenge, ordering the singer to provide details on all revenue streams, including tour earnings and merchandise sales, as the collection process moves forward.
