Based on the professionalism of the court filing, in which bottles of something called "Veuve Clicquot Chapaign" are referenced, there is a possibility that none of the following is true, although it doesn't sound particularly far fetched.

The production manager on the set of an Eddie Griffin pilot has sued to comedian for beating him up after he booked a subpar hotel for his mother. The production manager, Vince Beane, said that Griffin — who was drunk off of "chapaign" — accused him of treating his mother like a "slave nigga" and punched him, saying, "that was for my Momma…she ain't no nappy headed ho….boy."

Griffin's camp called the charges absurd. Absurd, maybe, but this is the most publicity this guy has gotten since he got his mic cut off at the Black Enterprise Golf and Tennis Challenge last year. [EUR]
