Katt Williams’ Attorney Wants Nothing More to do with Him

*Katt Williams is being Katt Williams again. That means problems for other folks around him. More specifically, his attorney is asking the court for permission to basically “fire” the Katt man because he’s just too hard to deal with.

Informing us of the situation, The Blast quotes court documents that show Matthew Gurvitz of the law firm Venable LLP would very much like to “withdraw as the comedian’s lawyer in a lawsuit filed by Katt’s former assistant.”

More to the point he says it’s a “general lack of communication” that led to him filing the motion.

Here’s more from The Blast:

Gurvitz claims Katt has failed to respond and comply with the law firm and it has “become unreasonably difficult for Venable to carry out effective representation.”

Gurvitz says he told Katt he would be dropping him unless “communication and cooperation were greatly improved. Communication did not improve.”

The lawyer claims if the court doesn’t grant the motion, it will put an “unfair burden” on the law firm and additional legal fees. They point out the trial in the case is not set until October, 1, 2019.

Back in 2016, Katt Williams was hit with a $1 million lawsuit by his former assistant, Angelina Triplett-Hill, accusing him of assault and battery.

She claimed he violently assaulted her on a film set on September 12, 2014.

Triplett-Hill alleged she was thrown to the ground, slammed her head on concrete and was rendered unconscious. She says she was rushed to a local hospital for treatment and remained there for days.

And wouldn’t you know it, Mr. Williams said he was innocent of all allegations of wrongdoing. But he didn’t stop there. Would you if you was Katt Williams? Nope, so he also asked for the case to be dismissed. Now you see what the attorney was dealing with.
