So, in the last year, the whole cast sued for release from our contracts.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
We rarely sue anyone, but, like others in the real estate industry, we get sued.
The only people who benefit from lawsuits are lawyers. I think we made a couple of them rich.
It took a long time to get out of my contract. The producers thought I was negotiating for more money.
Nowadays, in the contract that actors sign, you have to agree that you're going to do a certain amount of publicity-the hard part they don't pay you for.
The reason the contracts are so long is because actors are very spontaneous; we may want to do Shakespeare one day and be Porky Pig the next!
With me serving as the president, we filed a $3-million lawsuit against the league and its member clubs in an attempt to win increased pension benefits and a larger share Of television revenue.
Unfortunately, no matter how frivolous the lawsuit, you still, of course, have to pay people to defend you on it.
But the courts have dismissed the lawsuits against me and Lee Brown.
Nobody sues their fans.
I wasn't sued out of medicine, I wasn't arbitrated out of the profession.
