According to reports …
Duarte claims that Brown’s bodyguard brutalized him, causing him pain, suffering and a huge medical bill. Documents further itemize Duarte’s claims, and highlight that he is suing for:
-$1,000,000 for pain, suffering and inconvenience
-$1,000,000 for emotional distress
-$1,000,000 for punitive damages
-plus, another $60K for medical expenses
The “Fine China” singer has filed a counter lawsuit against Duarte, accusing him of provoking the fight and attacking him with “kicks and punches.”
