by Christy Zutautas

I’m very excited to be the new author here at Celebrity Court. I will do my best to keep you updated on the latest celebrity court cases, law suits, and other interesting legal related news! It’s been a while here since the last post and some of this season’s top celebrity stories may have been missed.

Here are a few of the stories that have made headlines around the world:

Uma Thurman

Uma Thurman

Uma Thurman went through quite an ordeal after her disturbed stalker Jack Jordan was arrested in October 2007 for aggravated harassment and assault. He was found guilty but ended up being released in early June 2008 when Judge Carro issued Jordan 3 years probation and a 5 year restraining order.

Rob Lowe and his wife Sheryl spent months in the top news headlines after they sued their former nanny Jessica Gibson in April 2008. She in turn countersued the Lowe’s claiming that the couple had been sexually inappropriate towards her during the time of her employment.

The Lowe’s claim that the nanny attempted to extort money from them. The judge dismissed several claims on both sides and soon both the Lowe’s and Gibson were claiming victory. Rob Lowe is now being sued by a second former nanny. You can read more details on the law suit and accusations here.

Nick Hogan, the son of wrestler Hulk Hogan was charged with wreckless driving involving serious bodily injury and sent to prison on May 9, 2008. The then 17 year old was sentenced to eith months in Pinellas county Jail, 5 years probation, a 3 year driver’s license suspension, and 500 hours of community service. His former best friend John Graziano was permanently injured in the car crash.

    I once thought my maid was stealing from me, but then I realized it was my ex-husbad. I am totally joking, but thought it sounded a little scandalous. If you like drama then you should check out the Starter Kit Video for Brothers and Sisters. It is really entertaining. Check it out at:

About Celebrity Court

Which actor just got thrown in the slammer? What celebutante was driving drunk? What singer is getting sued for copyright infringement for stealing song lyrics? For the answers to these questions and more, Celebrity Court is the place to be. Written from the perspective of a practicing attorney, it is a refreshing look at the age old problem of what happens when good celebrities go bad . . . and get caught.
