Bedelia claimed Bobbi "died due to a violent altercation with defendant after which he placed her in the bathtub unconscious, after he injected her with a toxic mixture", reported Ace Showbiz.
Lawyers for Bedelia pointed out that Nick had "no problem giving an interview to Dr Phil, but asked this court to relieve him of his legal responsibility to participate in discovery in this case" and was allegedly paid USD 40,000 to be photographed at Bobbi's grave.
The suit goes on to state that Nick has waged his "public relations war" with Bobby Brown's family. "The Defendant's reference to 'lynching' as he complains about the public comments others have made about him is insensitive and inflammatory," the suit said.
"The reference to lynching is yet another example of the Defendant's pandering to the press in the hopes that he and his counsel will be widely quoted so that his popularity will rise when he seeks to secure the inevitable book deal - which he may already have. The use of this kind of rhetoric is not only offensive but sanctionable," the suit added.
The new suit is a response to Nick's motion to stay discovery proceedings in the USD 40 million wrongful death lawsuit filed by Bedelia back in June.
