Brittany Murphy’s Legacy: A Wrongful Death Suit?
The Daily Beast reports that Brittany Murphy’s widower, Simon Monjack, will sue Warner Bros. for wrongful death.
[Bauer Griffin Online]
Monjack and Brittany’s mother will allege that the actress “died of a heart attack from the stress caused by Warner Brother’s canceling of a contract just two weeks before she died.”
It’s a sad situation, but goooood luck. Losing a job is hardly cause for a wrongful death lawsuit. Try breach of contract, at best.
Note to Monjack: Proceed with caution if you are concerned about Brittany’s legacy. Any defense of this lawsuit necessarily will drag her name through the mud to prove that there were other causes of her death.
She weighed a pound.
