Nasso v. Seagal
Continuing on the Seagal kick, ever wonder why Steven Seagal disappeared from movies for awhile? Not only was the mob after his Staten Island-born butt, but dude got sued!!
Nasso v. Seagal, 263 F. Supp. 2d 596 (E.D.N.Y. 2003)
Apparently, he started a production company in the late 80's with a fellow Staten Islander. Steven promised to act in, then didn't act in, 4 movies: "Blood on the Moon," "Genghis Khan," "Smash and Grab," and "Prince of Central Park". (Note: I think he didn't act in them, I'm too lazy to actually look them up; they were obviously memorable movies). In addition, Steven karate-chopped his way into debt with the IRS then borrowed money and refused to pay. Lemme tell you, reading that case he signed some stupid contracts, all of which he breached.
Anyway, he owed a bunch of money, lost his claims, and the court was not sympathetic to his low talking. Somewhere in the opinion is probably a section discussing who would win in a fight between him and Chuck Norris, but I think the court could not decide and sent that issue back to the lower court of Kick Ass county on remand. Sad Panda [sorry, I'm missing the picture of Steven and a panda but there's some type of error, stay tuned....correction: it's all Fixed!!!]. The End
