Allen Iverson Faces Another Lawsuit

The unfortunate down fall of "The Answer" continues. Allen Iverson is facing yet another lawsuit for allegedly not paying back a jeweler a few years back. Aydin and Company sued Iverson $375,000 back in 2010 and Iverson elected to not respond to the lawsuit. Now that bill is a hefty one and a Georgia judge has taken control over A.I's Wells Fargo bank account and will deduct a total of $859,896.46 accorcding to TMZ. In August of 2011, Iverson was reportedly sued $2.5 million by a man who claimed the 11 time All Stars body guard assaulted him but because of insufficient evidence the case was dismissed. It was during that case that Iverson told the opposing lawyer to "Go to hell". In the past few years it has been reported that Allen's high school sweet heart filed for divorce and custody of their five children, and had claimed that Iverson failed to pay child support. An article published in March of 2010 by the Philadelphia Inquirer reported that according to reliable sources, people close to Iverson said that the former star would "either drink himself into oblivion or gamble his life away"...A sad, sad story that seems to keep getting worse, and even more disappointing is that we kind of saw it coming. Lets hope one of the most prized athletes in Philadelphia history can get back on the right track and fight these tough times just like he did with adversity, and injuries on the hardwood.
