Nick Gordon, the former boyfriend of the late Bobbi Kristina Brown, asked a Georgia court to dismiss the $10 million wrongful death lawsuit brought against him by Brown's conservator, Atlanta news station 11Alive reported. Gordon denies having anything to do with Brown's death.
The suit was filed on June 24, one month before Brown's death, in Fulton County Superior Court. It alleged that Gordon was responsible for Brown's death when he gave her a "toxic cocktail" and then placed her face down in a tub of cold water.
Gordon denies giving Brown a "toxic cocktail," according to People, but he admits to the part in the suit that claimed he "went out on the night in question, that he reviewed video footage and then had an argument with Ms. Brown and that he then changed clothes."
Jose Baez, Gordon's attorney, said that his client hopes to prove that the allegations against him are false, Us Weekly reported.
"The recent lawsuit against Nick is slanderous and meritless," Baez said. "Nick has been heartbroken and destroyed over the loss of his love and it's shameful that such baseless allegations have been presented publicly."
Brown, the only daughter of singer Bobby Brown and the late icon Whitney Houston, was found facedown in a tub in her Atlanta-area home on Jan. 31, as previously reported by HNGN. She was placed in a medically induced coma and remained in hospice care where she made little to no progress until her death on July 26 at 22-years-old.
