OJ SIMPSON - RON GOLDMAN'S FATHER SUING OJ SIMPSON

RON GOLDMAN'S FATHER SUING OJ SIMPSON

LATEST: The father of RON GOLDMAN yesterday (19DEC06) filed a lawsuit aiming to seize all monies OJ SIMPSON was paid for a book in which he hypothetically places himself at the scene of the murder of his ex-wife and Goldman. FRED GOLDMAN's attorney JONATHAN POLAK filed legal papers in California accusing former American football star Simpson of "fraudulent conveyance". The documents allege Simpson received $1.1 million (GBP565,000) for the now scrapped book IF I DID IT, and a planned TV show, through "shell corporation" Lorraine Brook Associates, in a bid to dodge making payments under a previous civil lawsuit. Simpson was acquitted of the murders of NICOLE SIMPSON and her friend Goldman in 1995 in a criminal case, but was later found liable for their deaths and ordered him to pay $33.5 million (GBP18.6 million) in damages to the families of the victims. Polak says, "The question in this lawsuit is not about what's in their bank account right now. "The issue is, can we unwind this series of transactions and hold those we believe truly are responsible accountable financially?"
