The couple have asked for USD 350,000 and punitive damages in a series of legal documents after a man living nearby allegedly threatened to make life "unpleasant" for them because they refused to shell out USD 30,000 on sound-proofing walls while they were doing renovation work on their upstairs apartment in New York.
According to TMZ, the 45-year-old actor has accused his neighbour of antagonising his builders, cutting off the water and electricity to his home in Greenwich Village and trying to damage the couple's reputation by going public with their feud.
The mystery man took aim at the couple after they kicked off renovation work on their lavish apartment earlier this year and he became sick of the noise.
