Suit against singer dismissed
From Associated Press
A New Jersey judge has dismissed a $100-million breach of contract lawsuit filed against Whitney Houston by an entertainment company that her late father had founded.
Superior Court Judge Francine Schott found that Kevin Skinner, who claims to be the current owner of John Houston Entertainment, had refused to provide information to the pop diva’s attorney. Schott dismissed the lawsuit April 5, but her ruling wasn’t made public until this week.
John Houston, who died in February 2003, filed the lawsuit in September 2002, claiming his daughter failed to pay his company for representing her interests beginning in fall 2000.
