Lottery Winner’s Son Sues For More Money
Dave Dawes won $131-million in the lotto. He’s had to use some of that money for legal fees because his son Michael tried to sue him. Why? He wanted more money.
Dave gave his son, who has a high paying IT job, about $2-million. Within two years, 32-year-old Michael and 34-year-old partner James Beedle had blown through most of it. So Michael did what ungrateful child would do: took his dad to court claiming his pops and stepmom Angie promised he’d never have to worry about money.
Thankfully, the judge in the case saw the situation for what it was and dismissed Michael’s claims. As he puts it, “there was no basis on which any rational or normal human being could conclude that they could go back for more money whenever they wanted.”
